The size of files created by PEFs (and I suppose some other raw formats) doesn't seem particularly large or cumbersome, considering that a scanned color 35mm file is about 140mb or so (Nikon Coolscan, 4000ppi), while a PEF (from the DS) is only about 10mb, and as little as about 1/2 that if converted to DNG. I don't recall people complaining, or commenting, g about large-sized scanned files as much as they do the smaller RAW files.
