Hi Hugues,
looking at your comment in
https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/commit/2da2c4caf

you wanted to reduce the size of data to read, maybe to improve parsing
speed?

I asked myself this too, but then I saw this commit [1] and I decided to leave it this way. I believe that there is no performance loss or gain if the size will be increased, because the parser continues from where it left. There is a special case involving DELIMITER statements which may cause a small rewind, but it's negligible. At least, this is what the new parser does, I believe the old one did the same.

Oops... So I would be the owner of this change...
I believe it was because of the multibytes conversion functions that were too long on "big" string. So I preferred to work on small string, but there are side effects...

We should check the log history, but if the string functions had been rewritten after this, we can think about removing this length limitation.
