How about saying: "No Fixed Limit - see Table Size"


I am sorry for delay. My intention was to start discussion about unlimited number of rows.
I like this idea: "No Fixed Limit - see Table Size"

Another, maybe only academic, discussion is about maximum number of indexes per table. Reason is the same. Indexes are stored in table pg_class (relkind = 'i'), so when we agree number of table rows is limited, then number of indexes is limited too. 

There is fair sentence for number of columns - "depending on column type".

I think there should be an explanation what *unlimited* really means.

Thanks for Your attention.

Bartek
