Hi Hans,
On Mac OS X 10.7.2, testing your file I get afile of 110 KB with mkii, and 72
KB with mkiv (from the minimals). You can find the outputs here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4316076/test-png-mkii.pdf
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4316076/test-png-mkiv.pdf
All this with ConTeXt ver: 2011.11.29 23:11 MKIV fmt: 2011.12.2.
Best regards: OK
