Ok, the images in this B/W set converted with 64-bit binaries are not only
big but they are totally broken. I will need to check the B/W images I have
processed so far with these binaries and see if they are all broken. I know
that colour images are good and I believe that I have also checked a bunch
of B/W images. This certain B/W batch is compressed into JPEG2000 a long
time ago with another program and settings than I use nowadays so it can be
that other images are not affected. I will tell more after doing some
inspections.

Originals are compressed as lossless JPEG2000 so it is normal that a jpeg
compressed tiff is much smaller.

Yes, a custom build with Kakadu v. 7.3.2 plugin. I will do more tests
tomorrow once this batch of 3500 images is converted.
