[KimDaBa] Reducing memory consumption

I took a very quick look at the memory consumption issue (displaying a
big image consumes a lot of memory).  This particular change didn't
cause any obvious breakage, and it got rid of the spike (90 MB -> 250
MB -> 170 MB).  However, it still seems like 80 MB is a bit high for
the image in question, which is somewhere in the range of 5500x3500
pixels (18 million pixels).  Perhaps there's some way of reducing it
some?
