How fast must a continued-fraction-sequence increase that it is guaranteed to describe a Liouville-number?

A sequence $a_1,a_2,a_3,\cdots$ is given. Let $r$ be the number with continued fraction $[0,a_1,a_2,a_3,\cdots]$

How fast must the sequence increase that we can be sure that $r$ is a Liouville-number ?
