Appropriateness of a Django Textfield in a Model
I have a field in a model that I want users to feel like they can write an arbitrary amount of text in. Django provides a CharField and a TextField in the models. I assume that the difference is that one of them is a char(max_length) and the other is a varchar internally.

  I am tempted to use the TextField, but since it doesn't respect max_length, I am somewhat wary of someone dumping loads of data into it and DOSing my server. How should I deal with this?

Thanks!
