Why are cells are small? They could not create enough energy

Why are cells are small? They could not create enough energy to survive if they were larger. They would be unable to move themselves through their environments if they were larger and therefore be unable to seek out the resources they need to survive. They would be unable to move important gases and waste products across their membrances effectively if they were any larger. They could not produce enough structural proteins for support if they were any larger.
