Sofar I received 2 reactions.

Can't reproduce here; I get a 70KB pdf with your file and image.
ConTeXt standalone, 32-bit Linux, mkiv, version 2011.10.01 10:48.

I've encountered the same problem. The PDF is 1.8MB big. Compressed with qpdf (qpdf --stream-data=compress) its only 60KB!
Latest beta on OS-X 10.7.2
Further search for the cause:
My system is also OS-X 10.7.2 and latest beta.
To find the culprit I reverted to an older version of ConTeXt.
ConTeXt ver: 2011.10.14 22:47 MKIV fmt: 2011.11.11 int: english/english
Now the filesize becomes 72KB instead of 1.8 MB.
This one seems OK.
CONCLUSION: This must have been introduced in one of the beta's later than 2011.10.14 and in or before the current one: ConTeXt ver: 2011.11.04 14:15 MKIV.
I kindly suggest Hans takes a look into the matter.
