Be aware that ConTeXt needs to convert EPS (or SVG) to PDF before

Only once, as conversion is cached.
And PDF sizes depend very much on the used tools, e.g. Acrobat Distiller
PDFs are often smaller than GhostScript PDFs, even if there's no
downgrading of pixel images involved.
Actually, adobe tools tend to bloat pdf nowadays esp because of those
uncompressed xml blobs (last week I saw an indesign file that had 6
lines of xml for each time the file has been edited (timestamps etc,
rather useless info) which added up to quite some Kbytes.
And, adding structure (tagged pdf) is really bloating the file.
