I can replicate with the MSPI driver using your file with both LO (3.5
and 3.6) and AOO (3.4). However, if I use the generic Adobe Postscript
driver on Windows, and CUPS on linux, I do not have an issue. So, again,
it appears to be the MSPI driver.

The link (http://www.itar-tass.com/c95/606073.html) is valid - but
refers to a broken jpg reference[1] included and that is most likely the
problem. I'd need to spend some time comparing the xml files to figure
out the difference.

 I suspect that you have an issue with the MSPI driver. You might want to
 install a second one and see if it acts the same.

I reproduced the same situation (huge file) on 2 different Windows
computers.

  I noticed a strange thing in Windows version of Libre Office. When I
 print
  to printer that is configured with driver MS Publisher Imagesetter,
  sometimes print files are really huge. For testing purpose I used Print
 to
  file option.
  For example I attached a 13 kilobyte odt file that turns into 48
 megabytes
  print file. It contains several lines of letters and numbers, and then
  broken link to image (copied from web browser).

 You can't attach files here. You either need to post them on a site
 somewhere, or use Nabble to attach.

 As a test I installed MS Publisher Imagesetter, on a WinXP virtual
 machine (on a linux host). I then printed a 13K two page .odt file from
 LO Version 3.6.3.2 (Build ID: 58f22d5); the first page is all text, the
 second page is an EPS graphic. Printed to MS Publisher Imagesetter and
 the result is a 107K postscript file that I opened in Ghostscript to
 ensure it worked properly.

 The PS heading on the print file:

 %!PS-Adobe-3.0
 %%Title: eps-example
 %%Creator: PScript5.dll Version 5.2.2
 %%CreationDate: 12/21/2012 17:28:40

  If I print this document to another printer (with different driver, for
  example, HP LaserJet 2050) the size of print jobs is quite reasonable
 (less
  than 1 megabyte).

 I suspect that you have an issue with the MSPI driver. You might want to
 install a second one and see if it acts the same.
 
  Is it normal behavior? Have anyone else noticed that?
  We met with it when we were trying to understand why printing from Libre
  Office takes so much time in RDP terminal session. :) (We had files that
  produced even 250 Mb of print data, of course it took much time to send
 it
  to terminal client's printer).

 If you'd like to send me your file directly, I'll see if I can recreate
 the problem.

 
  Thanks in advance.
