note 59126 added to function.imagecreatefromstring

I found out that in PHP 4.3.2 and 4.3.4 that the 'imagecreatefromstring' function use a lot of memory when working with big image... Try this piece of code with a big image (like 1Meg or more) <?php $loadFile = "http://bigimage.jpg";//Try with a big image $im = imagecreatefromstring(file_get_contents($loadFile)); imagejpeg($im); ?> With a 400k image. I run with a 16M Mem_limit but for a 1.4M image, the mem_limit required jump to more that 32M ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecreatefromstring.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+59126 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59126&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59126&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59126&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59126&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59126&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59126&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59126&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+59126&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
