It does depend on the backend. And with the LDBM backend depends even further
on the "database" libary used (gdbm, nmdb, etc...).
In OpenLDAP, at least currently, the length parameter is a bit bogus anyway as
it is not enforced.

With BDB/sleepycat backend the maximum attribute size should be pretty darn
big, but by default an OpenLDAP thread has something like a 4Mb stack so that
will limit you before the backend will.
