It's really no different than anything else in computers. Take RAM for example: when you have too little, things are slow because it has to clear and re-write data. You can keep adding more RAM and as long as it's being properly utilized, performance will remain good. But there is such thing as "too much", where you start to lose performance since the system takes longer to fetch the data from the correct location. This is why caches on the CPU get smaller as you go lower.
Bigger isn't always better. Get what you need, not what you want to brag about.
