Thanks.
identify -limit returns this:
File Area Memory Map Disk
------------------------------------------------
768 490.0mb 980.0mb 1.91gb 4.000eb
results from top:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
3807 randall 18 0 14496 6616 2448 D 8.0 0.7 17:24.12 convert
top shows that convert is using approx 14mb of virtual memory, not
980mb. Does this mean the memory map request is denied?

ImageMagick stores image pixels to memory if the memory allocation request
is honored and the request is less than the memory limits. Type
identify -list resource
to see the limits. You can modify the limits with the -limit command line
option (.e.g. -limit memory 2048).
If memory is denied, ImageMagick caches the image pixels to disk and attempts
to memory map it for efficient I/O. If the memory map limit is exceeded or the
memory map request is denied by the system, all pixel cache I/O is to/from
disk. If the disk limit is exceeded, ImageMagick exits.
