[magick-users] ImageMagick causing high server load

[Mike]

I'm switching servers and something is apparently wrong with the setup 
on the new server. Perl scripts that use Image::Magick worked fine on 
the other server, but don't work on this one and use up the server 
memory and a huge chunk of the CPU until I kill the process. I did some 
searching and found 
http://studio.imagemagick.org/pipermail/magick-users/2003-January/007069.html 
and it said:
After a crash, do:
convert --version
gdb `which perl` core
bt

Here is what I got from that:
[root at gdserver1 Counters]# convert --version

Anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it?
