Now when krita is speed improved a lot, I wish I could go with bigger brush sizes - with soft brushes especially. 3000 pixel size should be enough. It would be helpful to fill big images with nice smooth gradients eg. for sky or water. I suppose brush size slider/shift drag should be not linear but maybe exponential, so we have more fine control at smaller brush sizes, and then the bigger the size gets, the faster it grows. Reproducible: Always
Erm... I feel old! Just imagine that when we started working on Krita, 256px was big for a brush! I'm thinking that maybe we need to have a max _per brush engine_, because not all of them are fast enough for such enormous sizes!
Well, this change may be applied only to pixel brush engine and maybe only when we choose soft/gaussian brush. Because 'pixel brush' with texture can lagg even at 500 brush size, so 3k size makes no sense in this case. Or maybe separation on pixel brush and airbrush would be good idea.

Git commit 85ec5a10916f4b5eefe36c14272957154b49e4fb by Boudewijn Rempt. Committed on 01/02/2017 at 13:42. Pushed by rempt into branch 'master'. Related: bug 10, bug 000 Now users can set the maximum brush size to 10,000. The default is still 1,000 -- and trust me, a 10,000 pixel diameter brush is slow and takes a huge amount of memory.
