Bug ID: 502303 Summary: File size growing on each save/export to an enormously large Classification: Applications Product: krita Version: 5.2.2 Platform: Ubuntu OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: File formats Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: anto...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Exporting/saving a file to TIFF makes the file size grow larger and larger on each edit/save operation. Resulting file size can be more than 10 times larger than required to store each pixel uncompressed. F.e. here comes result of "identify" such a file: 01_dir_org_mask.tif TIFF 1877x954 1877x954+0+0 8-bit Grayscale Gray 18.7867MiB 0.000u 0:00.000 While simple calculation 1877 * 954 * 1(byte) = 1790658, that is approximately 1.71MiB of uncompressed data, 10 times as little as existing size! STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open an uncompressed TIFF file 2. Paint a stroke or do some other editing 3. Save/export file. OBSERVED RESULT File size grows by 1MiB on each such iteration EXPECTED RESULT File size to keep the same size.
