Does page size matter if page speed is quick?

Hi,

I'm on creating a new website and toying with the idea of using video BG's for some elements. I've done tests through Pingdom and received the following results:

With video:

• Load time: 1.58s
• Page size: 4.4mb

Without video:

• Load time: 1.32s
• Page size: 1.3mb

So the load time doesn't increase too much, but the page size rockets. Is page size a technical issue or is ranking based purely on load time?

Thanks in advance
