Adding border of 'cmyk(0,0,0,255)' is about 5 times slower than 'cmyk(255,0,0,0)'

I process CMYK images appr. 5600x3600, and try to add black border with

Code: Select all

convert  -colorspace CMYK -depth 8 -density 150 -compress Zip -border 5 -bordercolor 'cmyk(0,0,0,255)' -debug 'All' -monitor 1.tif 2.tif

It takes 75 sec on my machine. Then I try

Code: Select all

convert  -colorspace CMYK -depth 8 -density 150 -compress Zip -border 5 -bordercolor 'cmyk(255,0,0,0)' -debug 'All' -monitor 1.tif 2.tif

and it finishes in only 15 seconds! Why?

The same difference (depending on border color) is when I add border with

Code: Select all

montage -colorspace CMYK -depth 8 -density 150 -compress Zip -geometry +5+5 -background 'cmyk(0,0,0,255)' -debug 'All' -monitor 1.tif 2.tif

and

Code: Select all

montage -colorspace CMYK -depth 8 -density 150 -compress Zip -geometry +5+5 -background 'cmyk(255,0,0,0)' -debug 'All' -monitor 1.tif 2.tif

version is 6.3.5.6

Code: Select all

well, i found that changing 'cmyk(0,0,0,255)' to 'cmyk(0,0,0,254)' restores speed to normal

'254' suites my purpouses and problem may be considered solved. But bug (isn't it a bug?) still exists, beware

Use this command to get fast proper results:

convert 1.tif -colorspace CMYK -bordercolor 'cmyk(0,0,0,225)' -border 5 -depth 8 -density 150 -compress Zip 2.tif

i see
thank you!
