Make a copy of your stack. If the copy contains multiple cards, delete card by card (within reason) and check file size . If it's a single card stack, delete object-by-object.
You say you went through unplaced groups, but you might also try deleting everything in the stack, and seeing what the single card stack weighs in at. If it's high, it most likely contains unplaced groups and/or custom properties with large data.
