trouble to open big svg file

[Wenliang30021822g9m7]

I am using illustrator to process my data, in form of vector file (svg). Usually Illustrator handles them very well, when files are small (typically some hundred kb).   While a file is big, Illustrator has problem opening it, and only open a small part of whole trace (see the attached pictures). Wonder what is the problem, could anyone help to solve it?

( The original file: https://yalesecure.box.com/s/za3diaujs8g2tr3lvw8o1y2mlhapqp02 )

I am using Windows 12, and the illustrator is the up-to-date latest version.

Thank you very much!

Wen L.

The file sharing service you've used wants me to sign up to something. Can you share the file some other way?

For sure... but how can I reach you? or can you give me an email @ wenliang.zhou@yale.edu? Thank you!

I can't really tell from the image, but it looks like the tracing result is going beyond the maximum amount of anchor points allowed in a single path, which I think is 32,000. If there is a way to generate the trace with fewer points the entire object may come through.

Thank you Bobby. It seems as you described. I may reduce sampling frequency but at the same time I have to sacrifice a lot of details.

What other formats besides .svg might you be able to generate in such as pdf or a bitmapped format and then use image trace if you want vector
