Are you referring to the maximum pixel allowance of 2048 pixels? If so, the only real disadvantage other than the huge picture popup would be possible fatal errors if your memory allotment is not high enough to handle processing a picture of that size.

hmm, there is still the value of maximum size of the pic to keep an eye on my webspace but the memory could be a problem. afaik my hoster spends me 8 mb ram for my site.

With 8mb of ram, you are likely to encounter problems when adding/editing pics over 1200x 900 pixels.
