Many thanks to Richard, John and Tom for your replies.  Our way
forward on these issues is now clear.

(1) Hibernate converts our Java Strings to SQL/Postgres "varchar"
defaulting to length 256 if we don't specify anything (currently we
always do specify).  We now have a basis to chose a way forward.

(2) The "binary boundry length" always seemed to be a "furfie" - and
that is reinforced by your comments.

On a separate issue I would like to point out that we have spent
nearly 18 months developing this product and we have prototypes
operating successfully in industry, and this has been our first post
to the Postgres forum!!!  I think it is a credit to the Postgres
product and community that it can be deployed so successfully with so
little specialist knowledge.  No doubt there are many improvements
that we could make, but to date it has been a pleasure for us members
of "the great unwashed" to work with.

Many thanks,
-Damian
