I would recommend using even smaller sized textures if you can.

A long time ago, someone recommended that we decide on a texture
budget for things like scenery vs. instrument panel vs. sky
vs. dynamic models, etc.

That sounded pretty hard to do so we never did.

Right now we just yell at people (semi-randomly) who we think might be
using up too much texture RAM. :-)
