Tom,
A 26.3MB XP1 RAF file from my XP1 grows to only 45.7MB Doc file in Photoshop CS6.
Therefore the 16MP camera is producing an approximate x3 equivalence when loaded in CS6 which is similar to the 36MP Nikon producing a 103MB.
(I know I am mixing MP with MB but I am also not accounting for the 3 channels of colour data and interpolations).
I just HAD to figure this out.. I had a bunch of 91mb files from the xp1. Your math was right so I figured I saved a bunch of files without flattening....nope... The files were the TIF files from silky pix !!! Now gone and PS files are in line with yours.
Cheers,
Tom
