Thanks for your reply.

As far as transaction is concerned, my question was if there is any limit
to the number of statements (select/insert/update) that can be
in one single transaction.
Is is possible postgresql buffer size influence transaction
limit?
I had a transaction with thousands of statements that I neeeded
to split it into a number smaller transaction in order to be able to
store it.

Let's say that I have a field in a table having tha type VARCHAR(100)
And I store to this field a value having 200 characters. Only the
first 100 characters of the value will be stored.
I think that in this case according to JDBC, a Data Truncation warning
should be  reported.
