Actually it is enormous.  You can shove a .jpg into the db field there 
if you are silly enough and encode it correctly depending on your 
backend.

hang on, are you equating space on screen with space in general?

Let me put it this way, if you use a 10000 character description for a 
transaction gnc will happily store it.  The size of display and the
