Speaking of limits and lack of them, here's some info:

curl has no limit on the POST data size, using -d is only limited by the size
of availble memory. Test 56 in the test suite sends a 100K chunk.

curl has no limit on the length of the URL. Not even for the host name part,
the user name part and the password part.

curl allows a single cookie line to be 4999 bytes - RFC2109 defines that
clients MUST allow at least 4096 bytes, sp I hope will make servers keep
contents smaller. I have no idea how much data the popular browsers support.
There is no limit on number of cookies, and each cookie must use a name that
is shorter than 1024 bytes.
