smaller holes give finer detail around the edges.  Just make sure the plate is well supported.

While the smaller holes probaably are better, every article on building a vacuum box for forming shows pegboard, probably for price and availability.  Maybe non-plated Perfboard  sold for electronic circuit building might be an affordable compromise  for cost and durability, as well as the fine hole structure?
