I am not sure how this happened. but was working on my small map with only the melee dependencies when saved was 160kb. I added the campaign dependency added gas/mineral items to the map and a few infested marines. now when saved the filesize was 94 mb :O :O I tried deleting the stuff I added and removed the dependency but that only reduced the 94 mb to 93 mb.
I reloaded a previous version and did the same thing again and this time when saved it only made 170 kb.
donno if somebody encountered this bug or have a solution (didnt find one when searched for it) but if you are working on a map dear to you, I would suggest saving often and with different names and keep track of the sizes. only happened to me once, but if I was unable to correct the error in a big map and not have a backup copy I would not been alive to keep write this post.

only happened once for me but be smart!
If you still have the bugged one, check the "Overview Manager" (F12).
It will show you the size (compressed & uncompressed) of the maps components.
That could help identifying the problem.
