Is it normal for the Recipes hda to be so large?

Hi,

I decided to give recipes a try in Houdini 20.5

I created a very simple recipe out of just three nodes, and the recipe works well.



However, I was surprised to see that the resulting Recipes.hdalc file is over 10mb in size for such a simple recipe.

Is this normal or have I done something to artificially inflate the file size?

Thanks

Solved.

It was due to the cached strokes on the attribute paint node.

Makes perfect sense. I don't know why I didn't think of it.
