50x50 thumbs - quality 50 - equals 20k?!?!?!

Questions and postings pertaining to the usage of ImageMagick regardless of the interface. This includes the command-line utilities, as well as the C and C++ APIs. Usage questions are like "How do I use ImageMagick to create drop shadows?".

You probably want to strip the image profiles from the resulting thumbnail images. Add -strip to your command line.

Better still resize your image with -thumbnail, which has a built-in strip.
