Questions about converting a Parallels 3.0 VM to a Fusion 1.1.1 VM

Hi,

I recently converted my Parallels VM into a Fusion 1.1.1 VM using the VM Fusion converter. The actual size of my 22GB Parallels XP VM on disk was about 5GB.

After conversion my new Fusion XP VM occupied 25+ GB .

If I redo the conversion how do I set the conversion up to occupy less disk space like Parallels? Is it better to have an expandable VM or have it set to take up the real disk space as I must have done? Are there any other pre-conversion settings I should pay attention to before redoing this?
