In EPUB, there's a "soft limit" of ~300 KB per HTML file. Very old e-ink devices had very limited RAM and wouldn't be able to read/open those.
It's also good practice to try to split each chapter into its own HTML file. This:
- allows each chapter to "start on a new screen".
- allows easy/fast editing.
- helps organize files within the EPUB.
- "Chapter01.xhtml" + "Chapter99.xhtml" is easier to maintain compared to one enormous "book.xhtml" file.
- allows you to take advantage of various tools/reports.
- Such as Sigil's Tools > Reports > HTML Files, which can give you exact word counts per file.

I merged them together and it works fine for me.
What version of Sigil are you using + what were the exact steps?
