What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. decompile framework-res.apk
2. recompile it back
3. the file size now 2,1mb, before it was 3,9mb. though i didnt do any change, 
just decompile and recompile without any editing

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

i think it should be the same size as previous apk file since i didnt do any 
editing.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
apktool 1.4.1 Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
i just wanna know is it common or not? or something's wrong..

It's probably caused by the compression level of resources.arsc file. It may 
work or may not on a device. If not then just unzip apk and zip it back without 
a compression.
