vips-7.28 is now officially out and includes sequential mode read.

In this mode, vips streams the image from the file format read library, caching
just a few hundred scan lines behind the read point. Operations which do large
coordinate transforms will fail, but operations which operate more-or-less
sequentially (like downsizing) work fine.

$ time vipsthumbnail Chicago.png --size 800 --interpolator bicubic -o
tn_Chicago-vips.jpg
real    0m5.775s
user    0m5.632s
sys    0m0.132s
peak RES: 150M

For comparison, the roughly equivalent ImageMagick command:

$ time convert Chicago.png -thumbnail 800 tn_Chicago-magick.jpg
real    0m6.223s
user    0m5.420s
sys    0m0.848s
peak RES: 950M

And the generated images:

The vips image is better quality, in my opinion, though maybe the sharpening is
a bit too aggressive.
