there's no need for a billboard to be 300dpi at actualy size. Processing a file that's 12ft. x 48ft. @ 300dpi would be hell for even the fastest desktops (assuming it's not 100% vector art).
I've made billboards before and usually every 1ft. is equal to 1/4" in your artwork. So if a billboard is 12ft. high, the actual height dimension in your document would be 3ft. (36 inches) high. And we'll keep the document at 300dpi. Much more workable that way.
