Is there an existing issue for this feature request?

I have searched the existing issues

I notice when I have Fuzzy skin settings fairly small, thus making a LOT of small commands in the gCode, that the gCode file naturally becomes huge. A regular object gCode might be 1.1mb and the fuzzy version is 23.5gb.

I notice that when sending something more than about 15mb over wifi (LAN only mode not even to China and back), that Orca will just evaporate. No messages, nothing. Just goes away.

It would be really nice if the estimaged gCode file size could show in the gCode preview legend, just like estimated print time.

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All
