More to the point about how it effects system performance, if you wanted a map of high detail, then such a large map would be pointless. Also this game was primarily designed as a fighter sim, with bombing only becoming expanded as time has gone by. Most flyable fighters and light bombers don't even have the range to cover such a map.

Really, such a map would only be useful to bomber pilots who want to fly a realistic 5+ hour mission. Smaller maps with lots of detail are better in my books than a huge map with little detail and of not much use to the majority of the community.
