As far as I know, you can't store a raw jpeg in Core Data directly
without turning it into an NSData object first which in turn
decompresses it.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong!

Initially I was storing the data in Core Data. In my app, the user
has the ability to attach an image to a record in Core Data.
Unfortunately, changing from a JPEG to NSData inflates a 1.5MB JPEG
to over 20 MB. In talking with some folks at the local Cocoaheads
meeting on wednesday, one person suggested making a bundle or
package in Application Support to store the images and just have a
referencing URL in the Core Data store. This is what I'm trying to
do now.
It doesn't sound to me that you actually need to have a bundle. You
can just store the image data as files in the file system.
I'm also curious as to why you decompress the JPEG file? If you got
the image as a compressed JPEG, why not store it as is?
