I don't have any relation with Mahesh other than a professional admiration
of his work. I'd love to see what you have instead but I don't think in the
overall context of what he's doing that it's wasteful. I did a review of
two of his books including the GDI+ title
http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Store/Books/0-321-16077-0.asp which that
example is from. I think it's a great book.

As far as being wasteful, I don't think storing blobs in a Database is ever
going to win any efficiency awards. All of the serialization and
deserialization and the like is never going to be as easy as opening a file
on a network share or local drive. However if your requirement is that you
have to do this, then it's as good of a method as any.

However I always love to see other ideas so by all means, zing me the code
