The biggest Lua in the mod tools is 148KB ( ifs_missionselect_pcmulti.lua ). There are a number of other ones that are larger than 50KB too.
I would say the average is 10-15KB.
What error message are you getting?

If your gamemode script is larger than 50 KB it causes a fatal error "Could not read @#$g_con" etc.

No, I just tried it with a 54KB gamemode script. It munged fine. You've got an error in one of your lines.
Make sure you have @#$g_con.req in bf2_modtools\TEMPLATE\Common\mission
Make sure you have @#$g_con.lua in bf2_modtools\TEMPLATE\Common\scripts\@#$
Visual Munge uses these templates to generate the files for each custom map. @#$ gets replaced with your map's ID. Search through your luas and reqs to make sure all the @#$ have been replaced.
