MS Tech Talk: "Maximum size of Windows Azure cspkg file?"
MS Tech Talk: "Maximum size of Windows Azure cspkg file?"

Is there a limit to the size of cspkg file that can be deployed? We’re trying to deploy our service and received this error:
The size of the package is 644960571 bytes, which is too large to be deployed.

The maximum package size that can be deployed is 600 MB (600 * 1024 * 1024 bytes).
Anything that can be moved to Windows Azure Storage and retrieved from there, instead of deployed as part of the package, ought to be separated out. A big component of the time required to spin up a new instance is the time required to get the package there; contents will come from Windows Azure Storage "on demand" much faster.
