I still find it quite astounding how poorly Unity compresses its data. Whenever something like this happens, usually the file to blame is the "data.unity3d" file, which is a "compressed" version, when normally you'd find some "sharedassetsN.assets", which is uncompressed.Compressed size: 257 MB
Uncompressed size: 4 GB?! Nani the fuck?!
Somehow, Unity seemingly doesn't compress the data.unity3d file that well, and instead has large areas of the file of repeating data, which is easy to compress into a ZIP (DEFLATE algorithm), RAR, or 7Z (LZMA2 algorithm) file.
