  You can only have 64MB of data loaded at one time; that is one of the only really 'hard' limits.

  You can have more than that on the disc (eg, your 100MB example) but you would have to shuffle them in and out of memory in < 64MB chunks. Note that you can't copy things off the disc while video is playing from the disc, so you would need to pause the video or do something else while this was going on.

  Have a look at: http://www.dvdforum.org/gen-hddvdguide.htm
  Section 2.1 contains restrictions for the XML file, 2.2 for script file and 2.3 for images, advanced text and subtitle.

  It is very hard to put hard restrictions on code "size" or "complexity."

  You can have a 10MB script file that consists of nothing but whitespace, or a 1-line program that contains 10,000 statements.

  The same kind of thing holds true for XML and timing -- you can have 2,000 simple XPath expressions, or one XPath expression with 2,000 complex sub-expressions.

  And thirdly, the Code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules.
