Some XCF and PNG exports are bloated
#2
If you create an image with a side of 100000px the resulting file is going to be huge.

The PNG compression algorithm is quite slow. The PNG export file dialog allows you to set a compression level, the default "9" is slow and not much gain in file size over lesser levels, especially if the image is a photo. Try a level 5 or below.

You may want to tell us what the real problem is because there is usually no real reason to create images that big, so you are likely trying to fix the wrong problem.
