When I open that file Firfox is not usable until the file is open. Once the file is open EPubReader performs very well and the access to the file is very fast! But if we could just decrease the time we have to wait until the file is open.

My questions are: Is it possible that we done someting wrong with the compression or is the time-to-open normal at 4.5 minutes for a file that size?

The Original Book has about 3000 pages.

Thank you for your Feedback.
Hi Zeno,

we are already in contact via email, but I wanted to inform the other readers about the current status.

I've analysed your epub. The problem is caused by the very large opf-file which has more than 7.400 lines. Please remove all entries except the one for the A-Z-pages and try it again.

Thanks,
Michael
