depend on the particular application.
Right, but what about typical input buffer lengths in the openLDAP tools (like ldapsearch)?
Right... libldap has "#define LDIF_MAXLINE 4096", you must wrap longer lines (start each continuation line with a space). That doesn't impose a max length of the attribute value though.
More to the point, ldapsearch() & co use getpassphrase() if available, and a Solaris manpage says it limits input to 257 chars. The fallback implementation in OpenLDAP liblutil allows 512 including the final \0.
