looking at the migrations I find that integer database fields are
created with wildly different "limits":
For example, ID columns are created with :limit=>64 whereas e.g. the
version number has :limit=>11.
Is this all basically disregarded, and all boils down to 4-byte signed
integers, or what?
They're largely ignored, yes. They would make a difference for values
created with an SQL type of NUMERIC but an SQL type of INTEGER is always
4 bytes regardless of the specified limit.
