I think it is much cheaper to estimate the size, then even to determin the size from a given byte-array (let alone transforming it). These estimations are only a few simple mathematical operations. I will measure the difference though, also because I want to know which implemention of the three 'ImageInformers' is fastest. The size (pixel size I mean) is required immediately (at least in html), because you want to fill in 'height' and 'width' attributes.
