One thing to consider...
With a smaller pot you can heat and cool the pot faster. I find 80qt to be the best size for this reason.
While this is true to initially bring it up to boil, if you have a 100 qt you have a higher water to crawfish ratio (assuming you are using the same amt of crawfish that you would in an 80) so the water doesn't cool down as much, allowing you to bring it back up to boil easy.

PS the best price on crawfish pots is at Sam's Club.
$100 for 100qt
$170 for 160qt

But my point is YOU WANT it to cool down. Thats a very big key in producing juicy crawfish. Stopping the cooking process is an important step.
