I've just added the following text to my working copy:

9.5.  Stanza Size

XMPP is optimized for the exchange of relatively large numbers of 
relatively small stanzas. A client or server MAY enforce a maximum 
stanza size. The maximum stanza size MUST NOT be smaller than 10000 
bytes, from the opening "<" character to the closing ">" character. If 
an entity receives a stanza that exceeds its maximum stanza size, it 
MUST return a <not-acceptable/> stanza error or a <policy-violation/> 
stream error.
