RMagick (Ruby) / IMagick (PHP) / PerlMagick (Perl) are all recommended wrappers for web-based image processing. Using exec() is not recommended due to the overhead of starting a shell and the ImageMagick environment for each imaging processing task. We recommend a modern version of ImageMagick, the latest is version 6.5.1-0. Recent versions of ImageMagick include a number of performance enhancements.
