Garbage Collection/Old Data in stack

[Scott Rossi]

You have 20+ unplaced groups present in the stack, many of which contain images, which is why you have 2+ MB in file size.

Not sure if there’s a programmatic way to remove them, but if you place each one and then delete it, you’ll eventually remove them from the stack.
