I'm afraid I can't tell what is wrong with your file, except for the size. I use Inkscape, but I have a few ideas. If you have problems with your fonts, Inkscape has a "Path->Convert Objects to Path" command that allows SVG to render 'non-standard' fonts. It may be that Cyrillic (excuse me if I spelled it wrong), or your specific font is one of the non-standard ones. You could try another font. If Illustrator is converting all the fonts to SVG path objects automatically, that would explain the size difference. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but I hope that at least explains the mystery.

::I opened your file in Inkscape, and cleaned up the def (Inkscape > File > Vaccum defs), which often enlight the file size, but this had no effects.

::3. You have a well know font bug, French use the '''DejaVu (Sans or Serif) Condensed''' font to avoid this bug.
