Cleopatra has more lines than any other female character at 686. Rosalind, at 677 is a close second.
However, Rosalind has 25% of all the lines in As You Like It, the highest percentage of any female role. And despite the number of lines Cleopatra has, she is overshadowed by Antony, who has 24% of the lines with a whopping 851 lines. She only has 19%.
Because Rosalind dominates her play, one is inclined to give her the nod as the largest female character.
