the release notes for GTK+ 3.14 say:

automatically scaling icons beyond the limits defined in the icon theme
unless explicitly asked to do so with GTK_ICON_LOOKUP_FORCE_SIZE.

the application code should conform to that.
So does GNOME's default icon theme constrain the icon size to some maximum?
The /usr/share/pixmaps/vim.svg installed by vim-gui-common has a width
and height of 550pt. On my system currently, it is shown at a size of
688x688 pixels by both Nautilus's "Open With" handler and by "Image
Viewer" (eog). However the "Open With" tab on Nautilus's file
"Properties" dialog shows the icon at a small size. Is the large icon
shown by the "Open With" handler a bug in Nautilus or some GNOME/GTK+
library?
A workaround is to install a GNOME icon theme that includes its own vim
icon (for example "gnome-colors-common") and select that icon theme in
the GNOME Tweak Tool. gnome-colors-common installs a bunch of fixed
size vim.png icons and a scalable vim.svg (with a size of 48x48 pixels).
