Hmm... are you *sure* this is 7.1? (SELECT version() will remove any
doubt).
Have you tried this w/psql, to isolate this from a Perl or
ColdFusion problem?
create table a ( f1 text );
insert into a select ('1234567890', 1000);
test=# select length(f1) from a;
length
--------
10000
This will show if you can insert a 10000-char row.
