Hmm. Really? This seems clear enough to me:
(Linux 2.0.32) [root] [ ~]
313 $ --> man xboard
/size
-size or -boardSize (Large | Medium | Small)
Determines how large the board will be and what
built-in piece bitmaps will be used. On a large
board (the default), pieces are 80x80 pixels, on a
medium board 64x64 pixels, and on a small board
40x40 pixels.
