    I have already read that this is an issue so I just wanted to post my particular story so hopefully this issue gets addressed sooner rather than later.

    I am well into the game (Day 17 of Summer, Year 7) and my goal since completing the rest of the game is to create a massive diamond farm and work my way up to one billion over the years. I know this will take a very long time but I already have a diamond quarry, a diamond shed, and 2 diamond deluxe barns that give me somewhere around 660 diamonds every few days. Now I am just waiting for more batteries to come from more lightning storms before I work on my next diamond deluxe barn and while I await those I still have a fully filled iridium sprinkler field that I only use to produce strawberries, starfruit, and pumpkins through their respective seasons in order to maximize profits through wine and juice. In order to do that I also spent the time building up 8 deluxe barns filled with kegs and a basement filled with casks to age the starfruit wine. The rest of the house is also filled with preserve jars and some planting pots (there is also a deluxe barn full of these where I am currently working on amassing enough sweet gem berry seeds to eventually do a couple full fall seasons of a full crop of them). I also have 3 7x7 bee house sections in order to make that honey money. My intention was to slowly phase out the honey sections first as I got enough batteries to fill new deluxe barns with crystalariums and then slowly phase out my crop spaces and keg warehouses accordingly. However, I can get no farther.

    Apparently, my ambition is a little too grand at the moment because of a technical issue that someone else has described far better than I could. Here is a link to that reddit why_my_switch_stardew_valley_save_is_literally. I had also started to build up a maple syrup farm in the desert while I was waiting on new batteries and with as many items as I have apparently I hit the 10MB mark and the game crashes as I have no gaps in any chest or inventory which seems to be another issues that causes this and I have checked.

    I could start destroying my work in the desert but I would hit the limit soon anyway by adding one or two more diamond deluxe barns. So, I am really hoping that this issue could be addressed so that I could go back to enjoying building up my diamond empire.

    If more people are having this issue please post so it will get addressed.
