A standard size that I use for displacements when creating terrain for large areas is 384*384 with a power of 2.

I use power 3 also TMB. But I think your issue is because your area is so large- I don't think there is a way around dividing them into smaller parts if you plan on covering such a large area.

90% of the time you'll want to use power 2 displacements. If that seems too small, it's more than likely because the brush in question is too big, so just cut it up.
Soo, 512x512 with 2 power?
