Even 4096-bit RSA keys are noticeably slow/bulky, none of the public CAs
are using anything stronger than 4096-bit RSA keys and most are using
2048. Why on earth would you want 8192 bits?

If you actually want practical strong keys, use ECDSA P256, Ed25519
or Ed449.

Wrong question IMHO, don't use 8192 bit RSA, it is not a good idea.
