We often hear that agile projects should be small, in both timeframe and team size. It is only correct to say that small projects are easier to deliver, normally. If a smaller project has a smaller timeframe then there is less time for things to go wrong. If there are less people on a small project then there are less people to break things. In our experience, it is not the size of the delivery it is the size of the shipment that should be smaller. Small, regular shipments are fine in smaller projects as well as large agile projects.
