Question Any Raw Therapee Experts?

I have tried several free raw conversion programs and I like Raw Therapee alot. However, for some reason, the file sizes seem to be so much larger than all of the other programs I have tried. Does anyone know why Raw Therapee outputs such large jpg files? I have tried several tests to output the same picture with same pixel counts in 2 different programs so its not that one has less info in it than the other. Thanks.

Nick

Check the settings to see if it's exporting 16bit Jpegs as opposed 8bit. There's probably some setting or another in the options that will allow you to adjust the compression.
