Well, the error message is misleading.
If you go via imagemagick, I guess, the image is rendered and converted
to pixel graphics and then converted back to svg with embedded pixel
graphics, which will inflate the output.
The way to go is to customize org-babel-latex-htlatex to "htlatex".
Then, the block without the :imagemagick header argument should produce
a decent svg.
For reference, this works for me (having org-babel-latex-htlatex set to
"htlatex")

I don't know details how latex fragments are translated into SVG but
there is good tool for this: dvisvgm. It is provided by TeX Live though
it works only on DVI files.

[O] Very large svg file output from latex block using =#+header: :imagemagick=
I'm trying to following along with the example here:
- http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-LaTeX.html#sec-4-3
I don't need dual export, so I tried this instead for straight html
compatible output:
#+header: :file tree.svg
#+header: :imagemagick
#+begin_src latex
\usetikzlibrary{trees}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\node [circle, draw, fill=red!20] at (0,0) {1}
child { node [circle, draw, fill=blue!30] {2}
child { node [circle, draw, fill=green!30] {3} }
child { node [circle, draw, fill=yellow!30] {4} }};
\end{tikzpicture}
#+end_src
Should this work? I get this error:
org-babel-execute:latex: Can not create svg files, please specify a
.png or .pdf file or try the :imagemagick header argument
In perusing another thread, it looks like the argument might be
=:imagemagic yes=?
- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-02/msg01302.html
When I do that and run the above, I get a 30.9mb file as the .svg
output. Surely I'm doing something incorrectly?
Just pulled this morning before executing:

Thanks for any suggestions!
