Assuming you are starting with a VCD size video, MF is likely quadrupling
the frame size and increasing the bit rate to make it DVD compliant, also
changing the audio from 44kbps to 48 kbps. This makes your file larger.
Burning the DVD to a folder on your hard drive with MF then using
DVDShrink to shrink that down to fit on a disc should work.
