I've just created an OmniGraffle document which has seven A4 pages, each of which has ten boxes and nine connecting lines. I have applied background colours to about half of the boxes and coloured about half of the lines. I am not using any images.

When I looked at the .graffle files generated I was aghast at its size: > 96 megabytes and roughly 2.65 million lines of XML.

Closer examination revealed several large blocks of what looked like base64-encoded data.

The size of the document strikes me as being excessive: is it a feature or a bug?

I'm using OmniGraffle Professional 4.1.2, version 127.10 on Mac OS X 10.4.9 on an Intel iMac.

P.S. For obvious reasons I refrain from attaching the file...!
