I've reached my max Faces limit, and even setting all of my textures to 1:1 size doesn't fix the problem. So that leaves one thing: my map is too complex. Is there anything else I can do? Am I going to have to completely redesign my map?

Here's my compile log: I also ran optimize with this.

Unless this entity is accidentally on the outside of the map, it probably should not be deleted. Some complex rotating objects entities need their origins outside the map.

And this error?
Not sure about the following but it seems logical
I think since your map is already big/detailed the Exceeded MAX_MAP_FACES error is a result of the Leak in hull 0 error. Mainly because the compiler can't compile VIS and RAD due to the leak in your map. The compiler will now add the faces outside the map (not textured in NULL) to the face count and this would cause the Exceeded MAX_MAP_FACES error.
If your map is to detailed it can only be fixed by getting rid of the leak and some of the detail in the map. Otherwise getting rid of the leak should do it, I hope.
