[chimerax-users] session file sizes

[Melissa Jurica]

What deterimines the file size of saved ChimeraX sessions (.csx files)?  I saved a session of one structure (6Y5q) at 4 MB, and another structure  (6y50) at 2.6 MB.  However, when I saved a session with both structures open, it was a whopping 120.6 MB.  Is there a way to reduce that file size?
