title: OutofMemoryException - Loading Extremely Large Images
body: <p>I'm trying to load an extremely large image (14473x25684), but I'm hitting into a memory limitation.</p>
  
  <p>Here's a simple program to demonstrate the problem:</p>
  
  <pre><code>static void Main(string[] args)
  {
      string largeimage = @"C:\Temp\test_image.jpg"; // 14473x25684
  
      Image i = Bitmap.FromFile(largeimage); // OutofMemoryException was unhandled
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now I understand that the issue isn't relevant to how much physical memory I have, but rather is an addressing limitation. Is there anything I can do to get around this limitation?</p>
  
  <p>The image is indeed valid and it opens fine in Photoshop (VM Size: 916MB) and ACDSee.
  Also don't bother to Google the dimensions as the dimensions listed aren't exact. :)</p>
  
  <p>Thank you for your time.</p>
