Have you saved it (i.e. if you're looking at the space used by the
running image, it will be bigger than the on-disk version).
If you have, perhaps you have a memory leak. Do you have any global
(including class side) collections that may be hanging on to things?
Have you closed down your Whisker browsers, done a GC, and saved?
Have you imported a lot of images?
