Rectangular build space: X axis on the long or short side? (2 replies)

On a CoreXY with a build surface around 20x40cm, would it be best having the X-axis the on the long or the short side?
On the short side there will be the two Y beams to support shake and X would be rigid from being short.
Most of the motion will be done in the Y direction though, so there might be a point in not lugging along the whole X axis as much? (rather having the carriage sip along the larger distance on a long X axis?)

Not sure what to think, if anyone have some insight or opinion it would be appreciated :) Thanks for reading.
