Problem summary

Customer reported version
modo.16.0v1
 
Customer reported platform
windows10
 
Steps to reproduce
 
1) Download the attached files and open the include .fbx file inside of Modo (1.7~GB).
2) Once the file is loaded select File > Save As... and set it to save out as a .lxo
3) Leave the scene to save and notice that an unreasonably large file is outputted (340~GB), or if there isn't enough hard drive space it will fill up and the saving will cancel due to lack of space.
 
Expected behaviour
The file should be saved as a .lxo without such as massive increase in file size.
 
Actual behaviour
The outputted file size is unreasonably large.
 
Workaround
Unknown.
