yup, the jpeg or whatever is expanded when the program and carried in memory as bitmap . I typically resample textures down to 1,000 x 1,000 for common use . and smaller for background characters .
personally I would maybe add a lower resolution by sampling the images smaller. A 4096 x 4096 eyemap seems way overkill.
