I've found out by using the "top" command that Imagemagick causes a very high server- & CPU load on my server. These high loads occur when the command "convert" is active. Is there a way to avoid/reduce these high server- & cpu loads?
Hi Hans, I have some sites that make a lot of use of ImageMagick (really a lot), and do not have a high load problem with this Are you using extra options with the convert, and from what to what are you converting?
Hi edge, Thanks for your reply. Well i have a lot of TYPO3 & some osCommerce websites that make use of imagemagick. During image converting the server- & cpu-loads are too high for my server.
What version of convert are you using? run convert -version to see it. Also for a quick fix I would suggest asking help at http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/
The output is: Version: ImageMagick 6.2.4 02/10/07 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2005 ImageMagick Studio LLC I will take a look at that link. Thanks.
I want to know how i can configure ImageMagick to prevent high CPU rates and memory consumption on the shared hosting server. I did not find an answer yet.
This is what I've found: http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=8474 http://forum.engineyard.com/forums/6/topics/47 http://studio.imagemagick.org/pipermail/magick-users/2003-January/007107.html I'm not sure if you can also limit the CPU usage. Maybe Code: man convert knows more about this.
