Sorry. Hit send way too soon.
I just tried it and it works just fine for me.
Are you sure you selected "Save as AVI..." and not "Save old format AVI..."
or "Save segmented AVI..."? Either of these two options will give you the
file sizes you've been getting instead of what you expect.

Problem is you need click the "Video" menu entry, and be sure you
check "Direct stream copy", which just copies the clips exactly.
Otherwise, you may be generating an uncompressed (thus, huge) result.
