Are there plans/interest in specifying larger standard DH groups, now that 
the AES has been chosen?

If so, what sizes would be appropriate? Tero earlier posted groups of
2000-4000 bits, the draft for AES talks about 14000. Anybody know just
how slow would 14000 bit modulus be? (I can guess it's something between
extremely slow and ridiculously slow..) What about the speed of a 500 bit EC2N?
