win 64

radeon
Video HD8670 D

I got a file with 60 Mbytes and tried the save as with compress set
and it is not compressing the file

if I copy objects to another file it goes down to around 25 MB

thanks
happy bl

The file might already be compressed, so saving as compressed will do nothing visible in this case. Also, .blend file might store some unused datablocks still, which will explain why copying objects to new file solves the issue.

In any case, this is all speculations. We do need to have access to file which demonstrates the issue. This is crucial.

if I upload file is it going to be shared with other users?
cause this is a still sort of secret project and cannot share data with anyone!

file is 60 MB in size not certain where I could upload it
any suggestions welcome

possible unused datablocks
for unused datablock will check for some script and test it

thanks

@rickyblender You can check the state of the file in the Outliner> Data Blocks too.

Also check the Outliner > Orphan Data > Purge All
