Google and (very) large pages

Hello,

Quick question:
I notice that a large part of my site is not indexed in google, even though the internal linking structure is good enough for the entire content to be crawled.

Among my hundreds of hypothesis, I am wondering if it has something to do with the page size.
If the html / text is fairly small (<40k), the entire page can go up to 700k (due to images - including massive css images - JS and CSS).
My understanding was that google has a threshold for files size, but that only includes html / text.
Do you think that the overall page size may be a problem here?

thanks a lot,

tedster

Only the html size should matter for indexing purposes - and 40k is not at all out of line.

Can you see from your server logs if googlebot is requesting the other urls but they are just not getting into the index?
