538MB for what?
The application takes up somewhere around 500MB on the HDD.
When running, the application may use large amounts of RAM; currently,
my machine has a load of about 150MB for GnuCash.
When stored, GnuCash files can vary wildly in size, depending on the
storage method. My XML data file which includes 17 years of data (stored
compressed, which is the default) takes up a little under 6MB. The same
file stored as SQLite (which is not compressed) takes up 48MB.
I'm guessing you're talking about RAM, though, as this can frequently
happen (take a look sometime at how much RAM Chrome can use!). A restart
usually clears that up.

How can this be?! I'm using version 4.11 under w10.
This seems WAY over the top to me, hard to believe.
I'm only recording my own expenses, nothing fancy!
How can I reduce this space usage. I've searched for answers, but
found nothing.
Thanks in advance!

p.s. apart from that, it's a great program :)
