Most likely yes, the file is too big for your server
php may be running out of memory when parsing the file

Compress your file!

use GZip

Upload the CharacterProfiler.lua.gz result and try again...

Do yourself a favour, use UniUpLoader (and let it have gzip'ed).
I saw it loading +3Mb CP files with no hassle at all - using the same 2 Mb server limit.

There are 2 size limits involved.
- Upload size limit, usually 2 mb (I think). gzip helps with this
- Memory size limit, usually 8mb on older installs, 128 on newer installs. gzip does not help with this, since the data is extracted before being parsed and it's the parsed data taking the lot of memory.

As a rough guideline, multiply the actual .lua size by 5 to get the required memory.
