Hi Pony, refresh tokens are usually opaque random strings stored in your database, so they shouldn't take more than 4KB.

I don't think that there's a way to increase the space, but you might be able to split a large cookie into 2. However some browser limits cookie size per domain, so that wouldn't work.

Here's a nice list about cookie limits per browser browsercookielimits.squawky.net/.
