Sounds like a determinate, maybe a Roma type?
Didn't look like a Roma -- had smallish round fruit (mostly tucked
"inside", you had to know to look to see them, tho there were lots),
good flavour raw, almost none when cooked; rather high proportion of
"tomato snot".
Determinates don't keep
growing and growing; they are a specific height
Ah, that's good to know. Specific height is better for me, since right
now I only have specific places to put them
