[SWFObject] does size really matter?

[Steve Wolf and Wolf Muzik]

I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on a problem I'm having 
using the SWFObject strategy for Flash (can I use that word?) in a 
Netscape or similar browser.

Here's the page I'm working on:
http://wolfmuzik.com/home.html

I need the movie to play when the page loads - the movie runs 85 seconds 
then I'm redirecting to another page.

The problem is that sometimes the movie plays, sometimes not, sometimes 
when I reload it solves the problem - sometimes not.
    When it's stalled it displays the 1st frame.
    I took the redirect out - same issue.

The movie can't wait to start up in IE - runs like a champ.

I'm wondering if it's a file size issue - the swf I rendered for my 
little trailer is 20 MEG, but when I stick a 3.5 MEG file in there it runs:
http://wolfmuzik.com/home_test_b.html

Any insights would be greatfully accepted.

BTW, I just learned html 2 weeks ago so my code probably really sucks...

Best,
Steve Wolf
