Thanks, Olav and Pete, for the info about how to clean up the signatures.
Adding the "--export-options export-minimal" option reduced the file to
the expected size. So that is a great solution for the keys I already have.

I wouldn't have said so either, because as I understand it, you are generating
the key, so it does not have a

Hi Steve,
maybe you just want to clean sigs using one of the import/export options.
