It's really simple.  It's the same size monitor.  The "normal" 
characters are high resolution 24-bit colour graphics mode with 8*16 
pixel glyphs, giving 240 columns by 67 rows.  The "huge" characters are 
VGA text mode at 80 columns by 25 rows, giving glyphs that are in effect 
more than 24*32 pixels.

As for why graphics mode has slowed down going from simple-framebuffer 
to vesafb, consider this and its implications:
