30,000 lines of C++ code for a 5,000 lines schema sounds about right,
especially considering that you use a couple of "--generate-xxx"
options. One way to reduce the generated code size is to specify the
document root with the --root-element option if your schema defines
multiple global elements and not all of them are valid document roots.

I am not sure what "problems" you refer to. With 30,000 lines of
generated code you can use XSD under the GPL or a commercial
proprietary license. This amount exceeds the free proprietary
license limit so this license is unfortunately not available
to you. See these pages for more information:
