How do I get around this:

I have an aprx that was made from an mxd containing hundreds of graphics items.  Not converted labels, just a bunch of raster images that were inserted in several ways (reason for varying methods was to get around various export bugs in ArcMap).  Now I have this to get around.  A 10MB limit ? Why?

To add: ArcMap would let you add graphics into your map with seemingly no limit.  This is an equivalency issue.  The mxd I imported into Pro from had at least 170 MB of graphics in it, Pro was able to import these, provided I broke them down into 10 MB chunks.  So now I have an aprx with 15 or so graphics layers.  When I try to make a new graphics layer OR add to the existing ones, I get this 10 MB limit error.  Obviously its possible to have more than 10 MB of graphics in an aprx, I have that right now.  I just can't add more graphics.  Why not?  Did ESRI nerf their own program for some reason?

I have run into the same issue.  I need to have JPGs shown on a map, from a field visit.  However, each individual photo (taken with a common iphone) is around 10 MB.  Therefore, I can only include ONE photo as a graphic on my map?  This seems like an oversight by ESRI.  I would like to increase the limit considerably.
