Yes it is. Well, at least the increase in filesize is. Imagine the ip
source address. It takes up 4 bytes in the actual packet, but in text it
is already 7-15 bytes long (1.1.1.1 and 111.111.111.111). Add to that
the XML tags and you can imagine that the file blows up quite quickly...

Try 'tshark -V'

('tshark -h' and 'man tshark' are your friends :-))
