Something along this line?
Code:
awk  '
NR == 1 {("stat -c%s " FILENAME) | getline SZ
         SZ /= 8
         FN  = FILENAME "_" ++c;
        }

        {if (CNT > SZ)  {if (FN) close(FN)
                         FN  = FILENAME "_" ++c;
                         CNT = 0
                        }
         CNT += length
         print $0 ORS  >  FN
        }
' RS= file
