calibre.ebooks.oeb.transforms.split.SplitError: Could not find reasonable point at which to split: crsto12.html Sub-tree size: 2563 KB

(There's much more in the error report but this seems to be the key problem.)

Any ideas?

TEMPORARILY increase the split size under EPUB output from 240 K
to something quite a bit larger.
Now do the convert
Change it back to 240K (many readers choke on bigger)
convert again, except this time EPUB -> EPUB (select in upper corners)
