I absolutely love Neal Stephenson. I've read everything he's ever written.
I don't think The Baroque Cycle would be quite as rich and fulfilling if it where shorter or if there were fewer characters. The only thing that kind of gets tedious to me are the letters, in the 2nd book I think, from Eliza to Rossignol and Leibniz. They consist of a large amount of plain-text and a generally lesser amount of cipher-text which is what you want to read about...
