Yes, that's potentially even faster, although some cards/drivers seem 
to have virtually zero texture switch overhead.

You just have to make sure you don't hit the maximum texture size 
limit, which is hardware and driver dependent. I would think pretty 
much everything in use now can do 2048x2048, though...
