unity import file size?

Does the free version of unity have some form of max file size when importing .obj or .fbx files?

the 3d files i am using are laser scans of objects so they can get pretty big one obj is of an object about the size of a bottle of water and is over 200 mb big.

it appears in my assets but wont let me drag it into the scene, the other laser scan I have is smaller file size(ironically a bigger object) and is only 92 mbs it lets me drag it into the scene. not sure what I am doing wrong.

    I haven't heard of a file-size limit, but I do recall there being a polygon limit (even though it's something high).

    There is an import limit around 65535 for polygons. However, Unity automatically splits objects into separate parts if they have more polys than that limit. Don't know if that works in Unity free also...
