I tried this (in my build of the cvs starting from -q -no-site-file),
(debug-on-entry 'sgml-html-meta-auto-coding-function)
(find-file "etc/NEWS") ;; the emacs NEWS file
and got
Debugger entered--entering a function:
* sgml-html-meta-auto-coding-function(580713)
byte-code("\212eb\210^H\211A^P@ !)\207" [funcs size] 2)
find-auto-coding("/down/emacs/etc/NEWS" 580713)
set-auto-coding("/down/emacs/etc/NEWS" 580713)
insert-file-contents("/down/emacs/etc/NEWS" t)
ie. the size presented to the func (in just one call to it) is the
full 580kbytes (and the current-buffer has the full file contents).
So, like I say, I was unsure when this does or doesn't happen.

Looking at more than 1k of the file will also be wanted for Project
Gutenberg texts. They have about a ~1k blurb at the start before the
header information that has the coding system spec.
