Huge Save Files (Not sure if bug or I'm a potato)

I've been working on the Duna Challenge for this week and I've been trying to do it in somewhat dramatic style like I did the Jool-5 years ago.  Anyway, today my save files got suddenly huge and it was taking 10+ minutes to autosave or quicksave.

Stuff was flying well individually (aside the wobbly rocket problem) and I hadn't launched anything new today (March 30th) the quicksave from yesterday (March 29th) was from getting my last module into orbit. Over the last 2 days, I had been doing a lot of "Revert to VAB" to work out my wobbly rockets, maybe this has something to do with it? I had quicksaved when I finally got my Duna Ascent Vehicle into orbit and went to clean up some of the debris that was floating around when I accidentally deleted the Duna Ascent Vehicle, oops. I went to bed last night and resumed playing today by just loading the quicksave and the game started running really slow on saves.

Edit: I reloaded a previous save to see if I could salvage any of my mission. Most of the stuff was in orbit at qs5 so I was able to make due with what was there and now the save files are back to normal. I have no idea what's going on here. Also, 666th post!

Duna Transfer Vehicle with the  DAV attached. I haven't checked how many parts but the DAV was 238 parts with the booster so the whole assembly below is probably around 300 parts.
