CSS file size limit?

Yesterday my site unexpectedly stopped loading. I tracked it down to
the CSS file for the site. When I commented it out, the site was okay.
When I put it back in, it was not. I tried connecting to the server
via Dreamweaver and it could not dowload the file. Very bizarre,
however I noticed that it was getting to 14.6K / 15.2K before pausing.
So I went in via the command line and deleted from the end of the file
until it was smaller than 14.6K. The site now works like a charm,
minus my missing style elements.

Next I tried creating a second style sheet (styles2.css), appending
the ~50 lines I had deleted, and linking to it. Again, the site
stopped responding. I started cutting out style elements and once I
got beneath a certain threshold, the site would start loading. It
didn't matter which elements I cut, just as long as I didn't have too
many.

Any insight into what is going on here? Is there some kind of size
limit of CSS files?
Thank you,
Kevin

Who knows? Probably not in a PHP newsgroup.

You might try asking an an appropriate newsgroup such as alt.html.css or
alt.html.

FWIW, I had posted similar issue about 2 years back and later I
found there is an issue with Apache on Windows. Couldn't give you any
links; but I'm sure there was some issue in Apache on Windows; it was
even mentioned in FAQ or readme, IIRC
