Initially I was storing the data in Core Data. In my app, the user has the ability to attach an image to a record in Core Data. Unfortunately, changing from a JPEG to NSData inflates a 1.5MB JPEG to over 20 MB. In talking with some folks at the local Cocoaheads meeting on wednesday, one person suggested making a bundle or package in Application Support to store the images and just have a referencing URL in the Core Data store. This is what I'm trying to do now.


It doesn't sound to me that you actually need to have a bundle. You can just store the image data as files in the file system.

I'm also curious as to why you decompress the JPEG file? If you got the image as a compressed JPEG, why not store it as is?
