I believe that the answer to this question does not make any sense.
Passwords in the database are stored as a hash result of an asymmetric function, which does not care how much data is in the input. An 8-character password and a 10^24-character password are equally processed into a fixed-length string. For example, the rail devise uses BCrypt, which always produces 62 hash characters
