I think it's ocean/fish/harbour jungle/fruit and plains/wheat/irrigation
(all yield 4).  Combine this with an altered setting of granarysize,
remember that the city doesn't have to *stay* that big, add in granary,
supermarket, etc., ignore alternate topologies that could get really
weird, and we get...  a lot!

Just make it high enough that some future ruleset designer can create tech
replicaters without segfaulting. :)
