My 500 frame animation is 480 P which was the width and length being 854.
I have not tried dimensions exceeding 480 p for GIFs.

That clip is 8.6 MB. I export in divx(xvid) format for youtube 1.8 MB but that is a finished format not really suitable for video editing, and does not loop for web use.
I use GAP plugin which has "Split video into frames" option. So i open my video file and GAP does the rest in getting the frames. The video lengths would not be more than 15 seconds . Cuz as a GIF ,that's long enough interval to loop.

500 frames load (2 min -30sec). Shows as 1.4 MB in memory https://i.imgur.com/xgYC7oa.jpg I can export as a gif animation full frame replace that took 2min-30 as well. gif file size - whopping 172 MB The frames do optimise in GIMP and export as a gif in combine mode, file size 2.8 MB Both these re-open in Gimp ok.
At the bottom of the screenshot, File size says 500.png(1.4) GB.What does that imply?? .To check file sizes in GIMP, I check them at Image -> Image properties menu and my file(.xcf) size was 1.5 GB.

May be even more than one episode if the length of the episode was 30 mins.
