Incorrect storage size of Express Webpage

I have just tried another file that was 5.26GB before the fix 

but it didnt reduce at all in file size 

After the Fix my 5.69GB file has only gone down to 5.23GB which doesnt seem correct

Hi ​@Northwest29778056nk7l! I’ve taken this up internally and will get back to you as soon as I have more information.

Thanks for tagging me and for sharing multiple instances. It definetly helps! 

I really appreciate your patience in the meantime.

I created a new Express Webpage with 948.5mb of images, these are placed in various photogrids, nothing else fancy, just some accompanying text. The final published size of the webpage is 5.45GB - how is that even possible? 

There is something wrong with this product and you are scamming customers into buying storage when you clearly are not storing the content correctly or efficiently. It is quite frankly a robbery for some basic html.

my express wont work, 403 forbidden errors (most likely related to storage) I have been forced to delete 8GB of Express files to get it to work again. Still no response from Adobe.

I have now REPLACED that same cover photo with a smaller photo 4.11mb and the size of the webpage has now INCREASED to 24.5MB 

WTF is going on Adobe

I have created a blank webpage and here is the recorded file size (34kb)

I have added a cover photo that is 6.1mb but look what adobe shows (12.8mb) 

I havent published the page yet so there cant be any version control that is adding fat. This looks to be a serious bug and one that causes your customers to have to pay for additional storage that they dont need. 

Given i’ve been waiting two weeks for this issue to be resolved and the lack of storage space / being able to clean up my own storage space, i’m quite upset at Adobe’s lack of support.
