I was just about to complain how suboptimal PIL is at loading images, but first tried to load this in eog (which actually did render the image after consuming an insane amount of 1.8 Gb memory) and then in Gimp that was no better :-) I am wondering whether there's a way of performing image transformations without temporarily decoding the whole image in memory... -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
