Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Thank you. These files are not too large (200kb at most and max width/height of 1100 pixels). Is there a way to force ImageMagick to use in-memory processing only (and restrict the total amount of memory it consumes)?

Also, the reason I'm using find is so that it searches sub-directories.

ImageMagick 6.4.0

Yes I can try VirtualBox instead of Cygwin to see if that helps. Yes the command that is the cause (or at least the command that freezes) is the "convert" line. My computer seems to be at 60% CPU (which is higher than baseline). Once I get an image that freezes I have tried running the convert ...

I tried those code changes and still got hung up after processing some images. As far as I can tell those were just syntax suggestions, is that right?

Thanks for the help. Version info:
IM Version: 6.4.0 Q16
OS: cygwin 1.7.9 on Windows 7

I wrote a script to loop through files in a folder and resize them. The convert command freezes on some of the images for a long time. I posted on Stack Overflow:
