How long can you keep wort before pitching yeast?
It’s better to wait 12 hours and pitch at the proper temp (below 70 for most ales) than to rush pitch into a warm wort anyway. I wouldn’t suggest going much longer than 12 hours but I have gone as long as 24 without any problems. It all depends how clean your process is. Agree 12 hours will not hurt anything.
Does fermenter size matter?

Do you stir after pitching yeast?
It can kick up yeast on the side of your fermenter that you need for fermentation. It adds more of a risk element for infection in your beer and it can make your yeast a little unhappy. So, the best thing to do is to thoroughly aerate your wort then pitch your yeast. Do not stir your wort after you pitch your yeast.
Can you let wort cool overnight?
But slow-chilled wort can still create plenty of cold break, by chilling the wort down to cellar temperatures instead of room temperature. Leaving the wort overnight at 50 °F (10 °C) has been shown to precipitate more than enough cold break for brewers, as much as 85% of the cold break in fact.
