Hope you get some whipped cream with that ;-)

About 20,000,000 cells. That should be OK.
Do you know how many different values are actually in the data?

An integer raster is represented by 32 bit signed integer values i.e. 
from (about) -2 billion to +2 billion. So you're OK here.

I'd try two things here. First can you change to a smaller region and 
rerun r.mode and try to display the results?
Second: the result of r.mode is a "reclass" of the original values. So I 
suppose it has to be recalculated each time you want to display. You can 
make that reclass map into a permanent raster by running:
r.mapcalc "output2 = output1"
Then try displaying the output2.
