Re: exrmaketiled error

Hi Martin,

exrmaketiled attempts to read the entire input image at once; the
program is not smart enough to process the image incrementally.

The highest-resolution level of a 20k by 20k 16-bit RGB image
requires about 2.4 GBytes of memory.  The lower-resolution levels
of a mip-mapped image consume another 0.8 GBytes.  To process a
20k by 2k image with exrmaketiled you'll need a computer with
at least 3.5 GBytes of RAM, and you'll probably have to build
the program in in 64-bit mode.
