Well after cleaning up the keyboard from some of the comments... i'd say that if it is too long, that's a problem irrespective of the actual kb size. You really don't want a lot of downward scrolling on an index page...

also page load. For an index page i like to keep it under 10secs for 56.6k modem users... after all the goal is to get em inside...

just my opinion though.
