Sounds like the problem is in the html, since it freezes while reading the book.
<table> inside <table> and <thead>, <tbody> <tfooter> will make the kindle freeze (see https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=148747)
The device does only read the pages you are currently reading so memory is problably not an issue. The largest book I have on my DX are one where the html is 11 MB and the PRC is 78 MB. I have several other large PRC's on the device (54, 50, 48, 25, 16 MB).
I always remove unessasary tags from the html, since when used in exsess may make the page turning slower. Some large html's may be reduced to more than half the size by doing so.
