Size of Inverse output seems to exponentially with number of rows.
Fitting an exponential to first 7 sizes and extrapolating, you get
something around 6*10^56 bytes for 50x50 matrix
counts = (ByteCount[Inverse[#]] &@Array[x, {#, #}]) & /@ Range[7]
(counts[[# + 1]]/counts[[#]]) & /@ Range[Length[counts] - 1] // N
Exp[50 a] /. FindFit[counts, Exp[a x], a, x]
