However, as You point out; Why use a large Key with the available Hash selections. Even considering DSA2, Everyone I know has already begun migration away from DSA to RSA. Personally, I feel Compiling GnuPG with the ability to generate an 8192 Key, while amusing, is akin to selling someone a .22cal hollowpoint weapon instead of a .45ACP for Personal Defense because it 'kicks' less.
