If you're saving as a tool, I haven't encountered a tool that saved so large. If saving as a project, they tend to be wonky since they save all your undos etc. So it tends to be huge and give tons of errors like that. Most artists I know save as tools, just save in (lots of) iterations since undos are no longer kept in the…
