Are you saying your postgresql db is growing when you run your reports?<br />
<br />
It's normal for your db to grow as you access and update the data. This will happen with with any access, and isn't related to BIRT or your reports. <br />
<br />
My .rptdesign files are anywhere from 30kb up to 5MB. Just depends on what is in your report.<br />
<br />
As far as your postgresql db, as you access and update it, the tables retain space even if you've deleted the data. You'll want to vacuum your tables occasionally to get rid of this empty space.<br />
