In *many* places...

action_buffer is memory buffer for DOACTION tag content.
In this particular case I belive there is big memory optimization
option by NOT copying the action_buffer into memory but leaving
it in the stream. I don't know how would that impact performance,
nor if it is ok to rely on a (possibly temporary) file for seeking
in it.

What is  a "sequence" ? A movie ?
As I said, memory is allocated in many places, the best approach
for you would be using a memory profiler.
