Still trying to debug SA crashing with the OCR plugin. I extracted the base64 encoding from one of the offending messages. Then I converted it to image001.gif with uudeview. But when I try to convert it to a pnm file from the command line I get errors.
[filter]# giftopnm image001.gif > image001.pnm giftopnm: too much input data, ignoring extra... giftopnm: bogus character 0x00, ignoring [filter]# I have no idea what's causing this, how to fix it, or if it's even related to the crashing problem.

This OCR stuff looks promising. Any comments on performance? How much extra load does it put on a server?
