Ouch
Is that 30% inflation rate accurate?
Ouch
No, 30% is probably a very pessimistic guess - the additional size depends on the way the program was written and can be as low as only a few kB for several MB apps.
Only for the actual binaries
Just to clarify: the only files that see an increase in size are the binaries inside the app bundle. Many of the files in a given app are images, .nib interface files, sounds, configuration, etc., and those won't increase.
Ouch
Unlikely, the actual code bit is usually quite small. Even in the executable file, text, constants, symbols, etc are big; not to mention the images, help, text, video and other bloat that apps usually have.
