I have 6,482 page epub (Adobe DRM) of the Bible on my M92. The file is only 5mb. There is extensive hyper linking in the bible - every chapter (which if you're not a regular Bible reader, these can be as short as two paragraphs - so a LOT of chapters) is hyperlinked to the TOC. It takes somewhere around 10 minutes to load, and then when I click on a link to a chapter, the device freezes up (it will go to standby and back on pressing the power button, but it won't respond to any other button) for several moments. Because I had pressed the back key, I still don't even know if it would have opened the chapter. Needless to say, this magnitude of a delay makes the file unusable.

I am surprised that the device is having this difficulty, as I have a 35Mb simple PDF file that it opens reasonably quickly and easily navigates.

What - if anything - can I do to make this file usable (bearing in mind that I don't want to lose the TOC functionality?)
