Need help to limit usage of memory

Post by Sera »

Hi,
I want to limit usage of CPU and memory when converting jpg to tiff .
I am using RHEL 5 and ImageMagick-6.7.0-9.x86_64.rpm.

I tried following command with options.
convert aaa.jpg -compress Fax -limit memory 300mb bbb.tiff

But, It doesn't have the difference with original command which is "convert aaa.jpg -compress Fax 300mb bbb.tiff".
It is okay to take time very long by limiting usage of memory by convert jpg to tiff.
Please let me know how to convert images limiting usage of memory.

Thanks,
Sera
