Ah, well you have a top of the range Kindle. I have a DXG, KK3, PW3 and a "gen 9" 32G + 3G/4G Oasis bought recently S/H bargain out of curiosity.
The DXG was bought for PDFs and is really junk from new. Slug slow.
The KK3 had only mobi FW when it was passed on to me, but the FW I did added KF8. It's slow and with a big book very slow.
The PW3 is OK, but inferior to the original Kobo H2O I passed to a grandchild. Much faster than KK3, but I imagine WiFi download of such a big book would be a problem and I'd not chance sideloading.
I've only played with the Oasis for a few days and deliberately let it update FW and I downloaded all by WiFi except 30 books via USB & Calibre. I can believe it would cope with such a silly omnibus.

I put some 70 Mbyte and 190 to 240 MByte epubs on my original Libra and it worked, but you'd guess a bit big.

I've plenty of 30 Mbyte to 270 Mbyte PDFs on the Kobo Elipsa and it's fine. I was naive when I bought the Kindle DXG! Worst gadget I ever bought new.
