Maybe a pertinent question is whether anyone is using the default TIFFOpen()? Maybe everyone opens their tiff file with the explicit flag to not memory map. :)

The guy who started the thread didn't disable memory-mapped I/O and hilarity ensued. I'm guessing he was a casual tiff-lib user, exactly the kind of person who wouldn't know that he ought to disable memory-mapped I/O to avoid problems.

His code had a strange realloc() call in the main loop, but it would be a logical no-op since he realloc()s the same memory size every time.
