Yep, that's oversize. I went through this awhile back with a county 
map/metamap I was working on. IIRC the limit is 4000 either direction, 
so you have to restrict it to 3990 or so to be safe.

You can tile it or reduce it's size. I chose to reduce the size, since 
it was fairly close, and did so with numbers I could maintain divisible 
for keeping the same aspect ratio for the metamap structure.

HTH,
