Sorry, disagree here. We did pretty large boards with eagle. One was
controller for a laser printer, transputers, DRAM, v25, size a little
bigger then a legal paper. And it was pretty easy. Have also Orcad PCB
Designer here, but eagle is much faster. And if you can send .brd file
to pcb manufacturer, it saves time again.
