Yes, on lower resolutions it's better to use higher quality settings and perhaps a sharper pixel filter, but on those really big scale renders it's usually not necessary.

why is that ?
I would have think that with bigger size, you would have been able to see more details (or more lack of details)

Yes, you would be able to see more details, but those details progress relatively to the main quality slider and the resolution itself. If there isn't enough space available to render the detail a quality of 2 or even 3 won't help you.

Those super-low scale details won't even be noticeable if you decide to print the picture in 20x30 cm format, so I prefer to not pump-up the detail too much on bigger renders.

I would have to do some test-renders someday and put them on the wiki for public use.

Wonderful image, any chance you post a link to the big version of it?

I can PM it to those interested (provided they are not complete strangers), but I don't want to post it directly :p
There were enough cases of renders being put on wallpapers websites or even being sold as posters, without authorization...
