Marcel,

Exiv2 uses more memory than necessary when writing to TIFFs, that's a known
issue. See here: http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/show/617

However, a normal "intrusive" write operation should not allocate more than
about 2x the size of the image. Try simple commands like those in the issue to
verify. (I can't download such a large file right now, slow internet
connections seem to follow me around...)

Additional memory allocated is likely from suboptimal use of the library.

Andreas
