Limit of surveypages with images?

Note that re-scaling high-resolution images ("I am presenting the picture in Inquisit smaller than it really is (with less pixel than it actually has, so I present it not in the original size).") does increase the amount of processing necessary. Decreasing the images' resolution will reduce that cost. Reducing file sizes etc. is a good idea (1MB per image is almost certainly unnecessarily large) -- especially if you are planning to administer the study via the web.

Until now I was testing it with 10 pictures (= 10 surveypages), but I need 200. Now Inquisit needs a really long time to load the experiment and every page even when I only have 30 pictures in it. One picture has around 1MB. I am presenting the picture in Inquisit smaller than it really is (with less pixel than it actually has, so I present it not in the original size). Is 1MB per Picture to much for presenting so many pictures in one experiment? Can I just reduze the size (data volume) of each picture and then it will work? Or is there a "limit" of how many pictures or surveypages Inquisit can present in one experiment without problems? Thank you for your help!
