Apple has already announced the successor to Leopard, called Snow Leopard, during the WWDC not too long ago. They explained that Snow Leopard would not focus on user-visible features, but instead would deliver performance improvements and resource footprint reductions. One of the measures Apple has taken is the size reduction of application bundles, which has resulted in dramatic weight loss for a lot of applications. AppleInsider has
found out what exactly Apple has been doing to lose that much weight.

I know my apps the binaries are very small. However to make it look just right I use a lot of high resolution graphics. Lossy compression only makes it look bad. So I put the lossless high resolution graphics. Sure it takes up space but it makes my customers happy, and my customers pay the bills. There are rumors that Apple are going to use Video hardware acceleration to the next level Vector Graphics 2.0 which could account for a good file saving.
