I think hop spiders just need to be large enough that pellets can fully dissolve. The more hops you use, the more space you will need.
I don't agree that nothing further happens after 15-20 minutes.
I like using the hop tubes with lids. I clip the chain to the side of the brewzilla (usually over the handle). That allows me to fully submerge at any any volume and swirl around the tube pretty freely (I sometimes use it to stir the wort). I can also easily pull it when need and add more.
