With ImageMagick 6.3.0-2 we get

On a 2.8GHZ Xeon. We'll take a look at speeding up the color reduction
algorithm when time permits.
Do you think its possible this is responsible for a > 3x increase?
Obviously your cpu is faster, ours is running on an older enterprise
NClass HP server.
The production server is a couple times faster than development, but even
still it looks bad to be using that much cpu on a large server like that.
Where it really shows up is 2 ways,
first converting my RGB's into gifs inside my Wand program. I need to
convert about
20-40 per minute, using 2 cpu threaded program it can't keep up (older
dev server)
Secondly, we have another process that takes these gifs and animates
them into
a 10 image loop and that takes several times longer as well.
I'd stay with tbe older build, but the Wand api seems quite different and
the online documentation only talks about the new version. Even the include
files are different, and for a newbie I'd like to stay where the
documentation exists...
Thanks for any help.
Brian
