Had the exact same happen to me. I had to edit it so it fits. I removed parts that weren't really needed (kinda positive) and unfortunately a description on a custom mob (which really sucks...)

This is a guess, but it might have to do with the different filesystem settings.
Some filesystems use different "minimum sizes" for a block of data. So, (using made-up numbers for easy math) imagine you had a 9kb file:
- if you had that file on a system that allocated things in 3kb blocks, it'd use 3 blocks (9kb)
- if you moved that file onto a disk that used 4kb blocks, it'd have to use 3 blocks too (12kb) because it wouldn't fit in 2(8kb) to store it. To software that checks the size of a file, it might appear that the file had grown a whopping 3kb.

No, the arc size determination is relative to the objects in memory, not as they are placed onto the disk. Someone did some testing in beta to verify this. Also, in my case both Test and Live installations are on the same physical media, so even if that were a factor, it wouldn't explain the problems we're seeing.
I'd like to recommend keeping the discussion in a single thread, please

All,
Couple of days ago I finished my opus. It was reallly tight. I had to cut a lot of stuff I wanted in and trim all the dialog as much as possible. But it was OK. Came in at 98.6% I saved it on a flash drive.
Brought the files home and transferred them to my hard drive.
Now MA shows it at 102.5%
Why did this file grow? Is it a bug like the one in beta where &amp was added to a lot of the text? How can I get this back down without cutting more story? It's really tough as it was to cut what I did.
Suggestions? Hints?
