Bug description:exif_read_file assumes only stdio supports stat(), performs
slow seek to end
Description:
------------
Per Twitter exchange with @pierrejoye
The exif_read_file function checks whether the file is accessed over stdio.
If
it is accessed over stdio, VCWD_STAT() is used to get the size of the file
efficiently. If it is accessed by any other means, this pattern is used:
php_stream_seek(ImageInfo->infile, 0, SEEK_END);
ImageInfo->FileSize = php_stream_tell(ImageInfo-
>infile);
php_stream_seek(ImageInfo->infile, 0, SEEK_SET);
Moving the seek pointer to the end can trigger slow, bandwidth-hungry
network
operations for remote stream wrappers, such as S3 wrappers.
Please test whether the stream implements the stat operation and, if so,
use it
to avoid this performance hit.
I was able to work around the problem by teaching my stream wrapper to
specifically tolerate the "seek to the end / ftell / seek to the start"
pattern
and return cached data.
