We don't all have the resources (or time) to set such things up, I'm
afraid.  We rely on the community for help.

Hmmm...  That would be worth trying, or try just moving the TIFF to its 
own directory and see if that changes things.  If it does, then you might 
also try changing the mangled cache size, which I can help you do.

There are over 60 routines in util.c, I'm afraid.  I need to know which
one.

Yes, that will help.  Thanks.

We do our best.  :)
