KindleUnpack strives hard to stick to an "Only What's In There" approach. If you're getting a single 89Mb html file out of KindleUnpack, then almost assuredly, an 89Mb html file was given to Kindlegen/mobigen/mobipocket-creator to create that Kindlebook in the first place.
"Shrinking" such a file is not what you want to do. If you want to create an ePub out of it (and KindleUnpack
should have created an epub already--regardless of how large the html file is), your best bet will be using calibre's book-edit, or Sigil to split the html file into smaller, logical sections or "chapters."
Hope something there helps.
