Are these image files or some other kind of files? Is image resizing
support enabled? Are you using the GD library (default) or ImageMagick
(with $wgUseImageMagick enabled)?

If using GD resizing, it may be counting more memory usage against you.
However, the reference to which part of the code is using memory and how
much seems unusual. That makes it sounds like you have a very large
*page text* which is being processed.

You also have the memory_limit being set to 20 megabytes; that was
probably due to the limit being low when you installed the software, and
overrides your newly changed server settings. Remove the line for that
from your LocalSettings.php to try letting the larger memory_limit through.
