Is it just me or the "huge" map size isn't that big?

I have created a "huge" map and it was only bigger than default size by about 25%... is it just a bug with my game or is it supposed to be?

I don't know how big that is but. Considering if it's 25% out of the current map size, it should be pretty big. IMO larger worlds may slow-down your game.

I played when Land Bridges were common and long long stretches of narrow land. (I think that was Spoiled Rotten.) Back them, "huge" was truly huge. Now, everything else by comparison is compact.

 Don't take my word for it but I think if you'd cramp the circular land worlds you'd get approximately the same size (or maybe more) as how default worlds generate now. There are biomes that can be double or 1.5 bigger than the old circular ones.
