Yes, 28 files/ 28 chapters. I have a series of books concerned with camera menus so each menu needs to be a separate item for ease of handling in both eBook and print form.
What is odd is that a 179MB file (25 chapters) saves in 3 or 4 seconds. This 250MB file takes nearly a minute. I haven't added the TOC yet but when I do this one will be about 140 items. The 170MB file I mentioned has 164.
Some of my original images in jpg form are 10MB. 5000px across which is oversized for the purpose but convenient of other uses. I suppose I could down-sample those to 1800px/300dpi for the books but I haven't needed to before, simply specifying sizes in width percentages in my CSS.
The actual ePub file seize is dictated by the subject matter so can't be cut. My CSS and markup are an absolute minimum so can't be altered.
