Alan,
I'm having the same problem working with some organic shapes for ankle brace designs. One of my parts ballooned from 15mb to 250mb within 4 saves, without much change to the history tree. It's crippling.
I called my VAR tech support, and was told this is becoming a common issue. He did not have any idea if this would be addressed in the next service pack. I hope we get feedback on a fix from SolidWorks soon, as this could really cripple my business with some of my clients. Otherwise, I will be switching back to SW2006.

I brought this up to Solidworks with the first file I experienced this with, and the response I got was that the file wasn't eliminating ghosted operations when I left the file. I wasn't given a solution for having this not occur again.
It isn't that I can't work with the files when this happens, but when I save, I might as well go get something to drink and come back some time later.
Has anybody else experienced this? If so, how was it resolved, if it was resolved?
