Yes, by default the Expresso field content is stored in the database as a TEXT column (like a textarea or rich text editor field) which has a limit of 65,535 characters. If you need to store more then you can do so by changing the column to MEDIUMTEXT or LONGTEXT, as per the limits below:
TEXT: 65,535 characters
MEDIUMTEXT: 16,777,215 characters
LONGTEXT: 4,294,967,295 characters

It will be the `field_id_X` column in the database table called `exp_channel_data_field_X`, where `X` is the value of the `field_id` column in the `exp_channel_fields` table.
