Michael, thank you for the prompt answer to my questions, so ..
1. Changed Settings\Interface\Thumbnail Size to 200,
2. Stopped LMS,
3. Deleted artwork.db which was at 698227KB and library.db,
4  Started LMS which kicked off a scan,
5. when the scan finished artwork.db was 874,552KB

I had expected that artwork.db would be less than the size immediately
before the scan.

This really depends: I mentioned that you'd only see a decrease in file size if the same "thumbnail" specification was already being used elsewhere. (Unfortunately) there's more to a spec than its size: the aspect ratio can be part of it (always square, or original), transparency, output format etc. I don't know what you think was already using a 200px thumbnail. But very likely it was using some different spec despite the same size.

Also, where are the increased sized thumbnails displayed ?

Don't know... any plugin or client software now can register for custom artwork. This can be a mobile app, Roland0's skin or some plugin.

The pop-up help says that the thumbnails are used when "browsing by
artwork" - when and where can you browse by artwork in the standard gui

In the web UI, when drilling down to album lists you can choose between text only, lists with small icons, or large artwork browse modes (see bottom left).
