Is there a limit to a webTorrent Magnet URI length?

I'm building a library to help decentralize tracker servers. The way it works is you spin up your tracker server => it connects with a swarm of tracker servers using the same swarm ID => then it shares the tracker server location with the swarm for that app ID. P2P apps with the app ID can then announce to all of the tracker servers in the swarm with that given app ID.

What I'm wondering about is whether or not there is a limit to the length of a WebTorrent Magnet URI?

Unfortunately, the only way for browsers to connect to each other is if they share the same tracker server(s).

My tracker swarm solution causes them to announce to all of the tracker servers for that app name in that tracker swarm ID.

What is the theoretical limit, practical limit of the URI?

Thanks for any feedback!
