PS file size not so "reasonable" with plot3d

Those guys that wanted Laz in GMT lead me to find this about ps file sizes when doing plot3d. In the case of the laz file (~2e^6 points) the plotd3 ps was about 411 MB. Quite big.

With a synthetic case these two have a bout the same size (~25 kB) but curiously with 2e^6 points the plot3d ps had ~50 Mb whilst the plot had ~70 Mb

julia> plot(rand(100,100,3), zsize=5, marker=:point, show=1, Vd=1)
        psxy  -JX14c/9.5c -Baf -BWSen -JZ5 -R0/1/0/1 -Sp2p -P -K > C:\TEMP\GMTjl_tmp.ps

julia> plot3d(rand(100,100,3), zsize=5, view=(180,90), marker=:point, show=1, Vd=1)
        psxyz  -JX14c/9.5c -Baf -Bza -JZ5 -p181/90 -R-0.04/1.04/0.02/1/0.00287271009298/0.988599253628 -Sp2p -P -K

but the big difference comes when use perspective other then vertical. It only take to change view=(181,80) to view=(181,90) and the file size grows to 41.5 kB (with the 2e^6 points it was 411 MB).

The reason seems to be that now each point is plotted with what seems a kindof rotation matrix that uses 12 decimal places and where all but the last coefficient is repeated thru out the file
