I have a bit of a problem with Final Cut Pro. Specifically, my library file is now 22GB, which, on a 120GB SSD (I'm running a MacBook Air with OS X El Capitan) is way too big. I've been careful to select "leave files in place" whenever I import media into Final Cut Pro, yet the library file is still growing and growing. Am I doing anything wrong or do I just have to offload my Final Cut Pro library to a bigger drive?

UPDATE: I didn't realize until now that the different versions of Final Cut Pro were so different. I'm running the latest version of Final Cut Pro X from the Mac App Store.

Why is my Final Cut Pro library file so bloated?
