Watermark performance?
 

Hello,

I have a question about the on the fly watermarking feature. I really like the idea of this but if I understand it correctly it will use PHP's memory to create and temporarily store the image. Won't this use a lot of memory and performance if I have a lot of traffic? Anyone using this feature with heavy traffic?

Thanks :)

It uses GD2 to overlay the image yes but the memory use is not noticable dealing with such a small image as a watermark

I thought that it needed to process the entire photo to create a new one with the overlayed watermark image. Is the process CPU intense?
I guess I just need to try it and see how it goes :)

Yes just try it. ;) it is not terribly intensive at all
