Hi,
I did have the same problem, in my case it´s 58 km of cave passages  
and it takes 15 x 6 m (1:300). But I think, there´s no need to see all  
the symbols in this main map, f.e. just because you cannot print and  
put it somewhere normally (possibility to climb on the map 15-6 m ).  
So I prefer to use "symbol-hide group all" and then f.e. symbol-show  
line wall ... and scale 1:800 if you need, and voilá, clear and  
readable map can be made.
