I am getting the following warning about two of my md files in my docs.

The size seems too big for what the page is. See [Chapter F - Flexure · AISCSteel.jl](https://co1emi11er2.github.io/AISCSteel.jl/stable/ChapterFFlexure/). Is this too big? If so, then I just have to split it up into more documents?

You can opt-out of the size check. See:

The warning is a sanity check for people accidentally including massive outputs.

No, you don’t have to… you could just increase the limits for the warning. Your documentation seems fine to me. The warning is just to prevent situations where pages get too large _accidentally_, and is somewhat arbitrary. As long as you’re setting things up deliberately, it should be fine (up to a point)

I think the safeguard is great to not accidentally have an ascii output of some binary file. To add to the previous answers, a concrete example how to raise the limits is

That way you can have a bit longer pages or even some longer lists, raise the limit carefully but still have a safeguard to not accidentally bloat your docs.
