title: Large request when sending TIFF image via SOAP
body: <p>We have a WebService with a method to upload images, this method accepts a byte array which is a TIFF.</p>
  
  <p>On the client side the TIFF is loaded with <code>Image.FromFile(path)</code> and then saved into a <code>MemoryStream</code>. Then <code>memoryStream.ToArray()</code> is called which results in a byte array which is used in the WebService request.</p>
  
  <p>Currently we have a TIFF which is 130 KB big, but the total request size is almost 10 MB. How can this happen? Is this because the <code>Image.FromFile</code> method converts (deflates) the TIFF to a standard format, so compression etc is lost? Is there a better way of doing this? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
