Here are the resulting sizes when creating PDF's using different methods within Mac OS X print menu:
Save as PDF 550 KB
Compress PDF 5.2 MB !!!!
Save as PDF w/ Quartz reduce file size 2.5 MB !!!!

I recreated (from scratch) the same content using Canvas. I got the following:
Canvas X 'Save as:PDF' 56 KB
