as for 'file size', anamorphic will have a direct bearing.
For the same aspect ratio (lets take 1.78:1), there will be fewer black lines (0) on the anamorphic version than the non-anamorphic version. So the non-anamorphic version will have more 'non-changing' parts, which will compress more efficiently.
So a 10 second clip should be smaller for a non-anamorphic transfer than for an anamorphic one.
