There's no max value because the driver itself doesn't
provide any buffer beforehand with the MaxLongVarChar size.
However, most applications seem to have their own text
size limitations.

It depends on your application. If your application
binds a text item with the MaxLongVarChar sized buffer
,it may unnecessarily consume a large memory.
