[magick-users] Multi-threaded ImageMagick

[Christian Bienia]

Hi,

I'd like to use the ImageMagick command-line tools to process large
images on an SMP machine. I've read that ImageMagick supports
multi-threading, but I can't find any command line switches which
determine the number of threads to use.

Can the ImageMagick tools run multiple threads to speed up image
processing, or does "multi-threading support" merely mean that the
ImageMagick library is thread-safe?

Thanks in advance for the help.
