Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

I have an issue where Mogrify is using 100% of the CPU. This isn't just on a single server, but different servers, and VPS's. The command that I'm using is mogrify -resize 640x480 -quality 80% ./temp/Property/*

I don't see anything wrong with the command, but such high CPU usage isn't a good sign. On average, there can be anywhere between a few hundred images getting processed, to several thousand.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

What type of images are they? PDF's?

They are all jpgs. For the most part 640x480px, converting to thumbnails 150x112
