ASCII text files that I have Copied/Pasted via Connectivity Kit from PC show up as substantially larger on the Prime.

Basically, what you are seeing is a cached copy of all the formatting stuff. It saves that at the end of the file so yes, it does balloon when you've opened it. I definitely want to change that.

Remember, that it isn't just a plain text editor but a complete 2d formatting engine that supports equations, images, formatting, etc. Unfortunately, the implementation as done does consume a lot of space when you exit.

As an experiment I took my 10k ASCII text file...
Loaded it into Microsoft Word...
Saved it as a .docx file, with all the formatting, etc...
Looked at it in Windows File Explorer...

It's only 12k. With all the formatting, etc...

I'm still wondering if there is a big problem with Notes.
