问题
I am using realm and I am not sure about this.
I have two option to do in Post. One is to save entire owner object and another is to save only user object ID. If I save entire object, is it object by reference? I don't want to increase database size.
The reason why I want to store entire object is that it is easy to access. It is like Post.User.email. I don't need to query. I read through realm though. https://realm.io/docs/objc/latest/
Thanks in advance.

No need to go by ID. In Realm, when you add a property of another RealmObject type, that will store the reference, not the entire object. So it will not take more space on disk than what you are expecting.
I am not sure if your diagram reflects your actual types, but note that when using collections, you want them to be of type RealmList<>, not Array<> (I am assuming you are writing C# as you referred to the Xamarin docs).
