Surprising how many data-only objects can reach critical mass.  REGAPPs, empty groups, blocks with only invisible attributes, zero-length text strings, annotation scales, AEC content... I miss anything?
If you are going to fly by the seat of your pants, expect friction burns.

try {GreatPower;}
   catch (notResponsible)
      {NextTime(PlanAhead);}
   finally
      {MasterBasics;}

BS
I + XI = X is true ...  ... if you change your perspective.

I no longer CAD or Model, I just hang out here picking up the empties beer cans

If it's an empty file, what does it matter?  Curious...
This is part of a project. I noteced that all files has a few objects but huge capacity.
So I picked up a file then delete all objects then burge.
The file still huge. So I am asking.
All files in this project huge same as this this file and gives error message when open (attached).
