[gdal-dev] Memory usage for GetProjectionRef

[Livneh Yehiyam]

Hi
We are using Gdal 1.7.0b from FWTools 2.7.1.
Our application is written in C#.
In our application we need to open a large number of tiff files (more than 2000).
We noticed that opening a dataset and then getting the projection string will increase the amount of memory (private bytes) by more that 80KB. This seems not a large amount, but multiplied by 2000 is more than 160MB.
Is anyone aware of such a problem?
