Just about to reply saying much the same.   The only thing I have to add is
the that the function mapping the Sn to the order of the maximal element is
Landau's Function, and it is difficult to calculate as n gets big

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landau%27s_function

gives the value for small n and an approximation for large n.
