> So rather than risking sync issues uploading your 20MiB KDBX file on every minor change, you can upload just the 4KiB or so comprising that data.

Why is your KDBX file 20 MiB? It seems you are storing something that is not actually a good fit for a password manager, and expecting the entire world to change around you instead of storing those files in a more appropriate place.

I don't use KP, but I have a pdf for my floor safe in my password manager. I only open it a few times per year and I need more than just the combination, I need instructions on whether the first number is cw or ccw. While I could no doubt look it up on the internet every time, I was fearful that the user's manual might some day disappear from the internet. Some things that aren't obviously passwords still belong in a password manager.

In my mental model, the PDF is not a secret and can be stored anywhere -- encrypted, if desired, but it sounds like a public document.

The safe combination is a secret, and obviously belongs in secret storage.

In this specific example, if I had trouble remembering whether the first number of the combination was reached via cw or ccw rotations, I'd include that in the secret, e.g. "cw34-12-22-45".

(Some safe combinations require multiple rotations. I unintentionally became the owner of one that is something like "cw3x34-ccw2x12-cw5x22-ccw2x45". I still can't open it actually, but that pattern is what the Internet tells me. :)

Were that me (I used KP), it would be in a different kdbx file. This is one of the benefits of KP, I have about 8 different vaults for various things. I don't like putting my eggs in one basket.

We have a single kdbx with nearly 7000 entries. It is about 45MB at the moment with very few text docs in it. It once got to over 100MB when I found people using it as a doc store but it had a bit of a clear out a few years back.

My kdbx is only 173 KB, but I don't hate this idea.
