The perfect example! I recently was looking at Reaper Man; 145 section breaks in, I think, 4 files. I merged them, then split at section breaks into about 40 files of about 20kb each. Called them "Split 1" through "Split 40" in the ncx. Reads like a dream now.

What I do is make sure each file of the story ends at a section break. So I move the test from file 2 needed to make file 1 break at a section break and so on. I'm not bothered by a lack of a ToC given that's how it's written.
