 From my experience...
Pkzip and Pkunzip v2.04g have no problems with "realy big zips".

I site this example:
http://www.angelfire.com/id/glenndoom/big-zip.zip
(the 3 .TXT files inside show that they have no problem with over 6000
 files contained in a .ZIP file of over 180MB in size)

drive-c.zip was created with
"pkzip -e0 k:\drive-c.zip c:\*.*"

drive-c1.txt is the redirected screen output from
"pkunzip -v k:\drive-c.zip > k:\drive-c1.txt"

drive-c2.txt is the redirected screen output from
"pkunzip -d k:\drive-c.zip k:\ > k:\drive-c2.txt"

drive-k.txt is the redirected screen oputput from
"xdir k:\/s > k:\drive-k.txt"
