There is no limit, but the performance would of course degrade. I wonder why the app is 17 Mb though. My Word add-in is nowhere near that size and also has the functionality to convert a Word document to HTML and export a Word document directly to ePUB (amongst many other functions).
I am currently rewriting the conversion to HTML part, which is around 80% I guess. That can also be used standalone outside of Word. When it is finished it might be fairly easy to create plugin that uses it. It would work on Windows, Linux and OSX then. Also, it is much faster than using Word filtered HTML in between.
