Thank you! That little quirk had been making me suspicious of that entire function. It hadn't occurred to me to just save it that way and check to see what size it actually was.

In the four panel view the top left is the original image with the original settings. If you save this image you should see the actual filesize is the same as (or very similar similar to) the original image size -- don't pay attention to what Photoshop tells you about the original image size. In my experience, the other panels and their sizes seem to be fairly accurate.
