Hi all, some time ago I posted a thread about not being able to load large numbers of TIFFs using TiffOpen ( http://www.asmail.be/msg0054686850.html ), for some reason I can't reply to that now. Anyway, I have now hit a similar problem again. I need to open a large number of TIFFs at once (totalling ~18Gb), but only have 16Gb of memory.

What error are you getting exactly? On calling which function? If it's the same as that last thread then your problem is probably not reading the files... that error appears to come from the code used to write files. Did you perhaps not set TIFFTAG_ROWSPERSTRIP to some reasonable value on an output file? Are you still compiling 64-bit?
