Which is better a low poly or high poly mesh?
$\\begingroup$ The cage has to be larger than the high poly object. The low poly and high poly can be the same size. The cage itself acts as a boundary for the ray casting. Cages are most useful when trying to make a map for an object with sharp corners since it will help create a smooth transition around the edges.

Can you increase the size of a high poly bake?
You can increase the size of this but shouldn’t go over 2.0. Once this is done, select the high poly mesh and add it to source mesh, make sure normal map is selected and move the high poly mesh into the low poly mesh envelope. You then want to select where your normal map is going to be exported to and what type of file it is going to be.
