Are you talking pixel size or size in MB?
Spherical are generally best as that way you get a more realistic reflection in the windows as they have something to reflect rather than a solid colour.

Yes pixel size and the resolution needed. The sample backgroundsthat come with Revit seem to vary.

For a clean render i believe anything above 150dpi to be the sweet spot. The size of the background image will greatly depend on what quality you are rendering at. For higher dpi i would recommend a larger sized background. If you can match them up reasonably well you won't get situations where the background looks bodgy or the background is overpowering and the model looks bodgy.
