Has there ever been, or will there ever likely be a 4 day competition? Couldn't find anything after a quick search, but competitions seem to be getting longer and longer these days.

It would more than likely be worlds where this happens and more than likely be 2017 or 2019 when worlds get ginormous. There would be a lot of sponsors involved and it would be tiring for the competitors themselves. I wouldn't be surprised if it happens by the end of the decade but won't be happening within the next 2-3 years.
Or we just remove feet and save so much time.

I want to post "Challenge accepted" but 3 days almost killed me. Find me another organiser who wants to hold a 2 day comp and we can hold 2 days each.
Reaching 100 competitors seems unrealistic for most events. But with 3 rounds of everything and nice cutoffs/hard limits, we would already be busy enough for the whole 4 days
It certainly doesn't seem out of the question, but would only be appropriate for a major event.

There have only been three comps with more than 300 people and none of them were in India...In India we once had 300+ competitors for 3x3
