It seems that the TIFF reader is "broken" in that it is trying to read the entire strip (263469312 bytes) into memory at once. At least with libtiff, there is the opportunity to use scanline style access with this tiff in order to minimize memory consumption. > Any feedback is welcomed in detecting differences that can cause > this issues, as well as the best way to make tiff2 similar to tiff > 1. Use tiffcp to break the problem tiff into one with small strips, or fix the tiff reader to use scanline access when it should.
