I painted a canvas 18000x9000 pixels. At maximum width, the oil brush was too small for large gestural painting. I worked around this by filling a layer with color, and then erasing selectively.

Perhaps the next version of Artrage could address this? It does not appear to be a hardware issue. The machine is a Cintiq Companion 2, with 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity.

It's a sort of hardware issue - the larger the brush gets, the more memory it uses, to the point where it will become unusable.

You can create brushes up to 500% (if you aren't aware), but that size canvas is pretty big. You might be better off creating a smaller canvas, recording the process as a script, and playing it back at the larger resolution afterwards.
