What do you have in mind to use as area that is bounded by a polygon
that has more than 2k of nodes?

I do what everyone does that is smart, not reinvent the wheel. Geos is
for us geometry-dropouts. There is no a priori need to break things up.
If you do want to break things up, implement server/clientside what I
suggested before, partial ways (as in return less nodes) limited by
bboxing. That has a effect on any form of processing.

You have already implemented it; (I have too btw). Since I'm not going
to code Ruby or Java 'for fun', I'll stick with the C implementation of
the API. Like other people work on other editors not in Java.
