Optimization for sequential access of multilayered images

Hi,

let's say I want to access a multilayered image (tif or psd), to read each page in it gfl sdk have to open the image, scan the header, seek to the right page and close the file.
I'm wondering if this affects heavily the performance of the function and in case if the author plans to add a function to read specifically this kind of images, that is the equivalent of gflFileAddPicture made for reading.

Thanks.

No, i don't think that open/read/close affects performance.
