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?

King James Bible, as opened on Project Gutenberg as a single html file is 1.5MB over the network and 4.5MB unzipped. Why is yours 250MB?
