title: MySQL: Increasing GROUP_CONCAT_MAX_LEN param - any dangers?
body: <p>Right now, my MySQL server is using the default value of 1024 bytes for the GROUP_CONCAT_MAX_LEN, and I need to increase it.</p>
  
  <p>I am aware of the fact it is constrained by the MAX_ALLOWED_PACKET param, which is currently very sufficient in size.</p>
  
  <p>Will incraesing the GROUP_CONCAT_MAX_LEN affect anything?
  Does it have any consequences or dangers I should be aware of?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
