@ace_dent: the issue came up when a PNG was imported which just had one 80MB
IDAT chunk. We just needed a 64x64 preview of it. The allocation 80MB isn't
nice. Reading the whole thing costs a lot. When checksumming, there were all
cache misses. Decompressing and filtering was all cache misses too.

At least for interlaced PNGs this is a complete waste, when just the first pass
of the decompression is needed. For non-interlaced the benefit is just the
reduced cache misses, but with memory accesses costing almost 10 times more than
cache hits it is very beneficial to be cache friendly.
