Do you have other suggestions? Like a different, faster app to look up spells and feats?

I use either HL or the PFSRD. Those are both way faster and easier than bloating RW with it.
As to your compress DB issues, 4 GB does seem excessive for just two imports. I'd really like to take a look at the script they use for inserting rows from a foreign source. I think something is hinky. The fact that you can run a utility and get 90+% of the space back says something is badly wrong somewhere.
Whether 130MB is really that large for the DB keep in mind a CSV is nearly as unformatted as data can be. A DB is a much more ordered method of storing data, one that usually relies on things like fixed record sizes and indexes to speed up searches both of which add bulk to the DB.
