What module is this? I'd like to have a look at it next week once I'm home again. I'm in the midst of a project aimed at eliminating unnecessary out of memory exceptions, and I'd like to be able to test my new image caching code on modules which are likely to stress it. (BTW, there is no direct connection between file size and in-memory size for images. It's the image dimensions and depth which matter for in-memory size. It's possible to create tiny files which store huge images once they're loaded.) -- J.
