I had one that did that every time I tried to import it. Something in the CAD file was corrupt. We had to open the CAD in the native software and resave it as a STEP.
I have used over 700MB cads easy, my computer is pretty good tho.
Also depends what kind of CAD it is. If its assembly of very large blocks its gonna be much easier to run than, lets say, rotor stack with 1000 lamellas.
I have 755,123MB and it stops every time at 55% tessellating.
Well, 755,123MB is over 735 Gigabytes. If you truly have a 735GB cad model, I'm speechless. I don't even know of a desktop PC that would be able to handle a single file of that size.
If there is just something lost in translation and you have a 755MB cad model, I open 3-5 GB models in PC-DMIS on occasion without issue.. Major limitations are usually video ram and PC ram.

I thought I was misreading that at first. We deal with full engine assemblies that are 5-10 GB that don't have issues on PCDMIS or Calypso. I think we have 64 GB RAM and something like 16 GB video card memory on our machines

I had this exact problem and now keep a version from 2016 installed for this very reason. We are on 2021 r2 and it wouldn't import. Hung up around 50%. Older versions could import it fine. Once it was imported I just used the .cad file in 2021
