Im receiving this error. I'm doing some image manipulations and if i repeat some steps multiple times(like zoom in/zoom out) i get this error. Anyone knows a fix for that?

You may have a memory leak. Color reduction is resource intensive but we've only seen it fail on an iPhone. We assume your 5-Red_Back.jpg is a reasonable size, perhaps less than 4000x4000 pixels?

Thanks for your reply.
Well, the size of the picture will vary, it can go beyond the reasonable size you specified. However, i reproduced the error with a small picture too(400x400).
Memory leak it's possible since im composing 2-3 images inside the script at a request.
