For those of us who work with 30 or 40 pages in a document file, plus
maybe some complex formatting options used, we may consider 40 pages as
a large document, while others may consider documents need 100 or more
pages to be a considered large one.

SO, is there any consensus on where is the line drawn for this document
is a large one and this other is not?  Does anyone know any "official"
reference about this?

FWIW on the 'large document' topic. I recently wrote a 'large' (ish ?)
document using LO Writer :

109 pages (US Letter size pages)
70 illustrations (.png format black and white)
21k words

The images were all linked rather than embedded because they too evolved
during the writing process and embedding gets the updates included.

Each image was anchored to paragraph (rather than character or page)
with 'NoWrap'.  I didn't 'mess' with the image frame styles except for
the captions.

Text was all formatted using styles I created to suit my needs.

During the writing / formatting process, the only difficulty I had from
time to time was adjusting the sizes of the images. I didn't find the
graphics position and size boxes in the right hand bar to be very reliable.

I kept the whole document as one single file and loading time was never
a problem. Whenever I added or modified an image, I used File > Reload
which was pretty rapid.

I had a TOC and general index in the file, developed with LO Writer tools.

I flattened all the image links prior to exporting to pdf. Overall the
LO Writer process was pretty good.
