Are those the default DHCP range sizes? If so they should be quite
tunable.
And, if your subnet is 10.0.0.0/8 you can offer most of that (four
million or so addresses) as your potential pool. Good luck filling
that.
The main nasty is if you have a pool of eg. 50 but 51 or more devices
try and claim an address. Things get ugly then; it's good to have
comfortably more addresses than needed so that no contention occurs.
