I don't know. I have a lot of Delphi Classics, some of which are 25.000+ pages, such as the Anthony Trollope one (using my own setting of 2400 characters per page). When opening them using the calibre viewer, it takes a LONG time, and this is a desktop computer. I assume calibre is extracting the book and completely loading it into memory. (I'm opening the EPUB version, by the way.)
The Kindle opens the converted AZW3 version instantaneously, so it is not extracting the entire book. Maybe it's possible to extract only the OPF/NCX files, and then only extract the files one by one during reading. Or something...
