architect miss-reading file size

my file is 3.3 GB, but when I drag it into architect 4, its reading it as 6.0 GB. When I drag the same file into Architect 2.0, it reads it acurately. What's going on here?
thank you

It has not been that accurate in determining file size. If you know the size, ignore the warning and continue.

Just make sure, in optimize, that it is not re-encoding.
I think the estimate is based on length and project setting of avg bitrate
