Over-sized Passenger Handling Over-wing Exits?

I did a quick search but did not see this sensitive subject discussed.

I was recently on an A-320 flight on an exit aisle. I noticed across the aisle, the window and middle seats were taken by 2 pretty large passengers. Apparently they are elites (so am I so it is not sour grape).

While they are large, they are not disabled or anything. I just did not think they could squeeze through that tiny exit in a hurry. I started thinking what would happen if we had to evacuate.

I wonder what others think about this issue? Thanks.
