That also happend to me when i've switched from 3.89 to 3.91
but i think it's probably 'natural' for that to happend has if you touch 
the algorythm then it's normal that the size of the files will go 
different.

Has off getting smaller i can only think that it's probably a question 
of  the algorithm choosing the bitrate, and you can't expect that given 
a heuristic the result will be the same.

Has of LAME get files smaller and smaller it's not a think that i 
personaly like.
But that's a  compromise that one mustt choose for they personal 
purposes. Mp3PRO cut's loads of frequencies and the  result can be 
audible, but is it near by the original one? no it can't. So with LAME 
going this way i think i'll stick with this version (3.91) for long term.

Reason:
I'm expecting that LAME reproduces as cloose to the original it can get. 
So if you start to cut's to mutch frequencies it will resemble Mp3PRO 
... and that's :=(

So why not improve better compressing times and better cut's curves and 
better quantitization algorythms instead of cutting more bit's...
