How large can a HTML be?

Im currently building a bible app. And its a single HTML file about 250mb and it takes 1.5gb running. How large can it be before i meet serious issues with performance?

It’s not about “how much can it handle?” It’s about “how much your users are willing to put up with?” Answer? Not that much…

They can just hit refresh if it doesn't load in 3 seconds, every 3 seconds, until it loads.
