The energy for making enormous fruiting bodies must come from somewhere, so I assumed the supply of energy must be large. I had not considered the alternative you propose, that the period of feeding between fruiting could be long.

A comparable example in plants might be how the tiny agave produce colossal fruiting bodies when they breed. Granted they save up for a hundred years and die after this.
