[magick-users] Resampling with Point Filter Hangs

[Youssef Eldakar]

I am using PerlMagick to resample TIFF images to 150x150 dpi using the
Point filter. Occasionally, I run into an image that causes ImageMagick
to hang, i.e. run for a very long time while filling up /tmp without
ever returning. One such image is available at
http://mybook.bibalex.org/i/00029211-0001.tif. I am running ImageMagick
6.2.4 on Linux. I am calling the Resample routine as follows:

Resample(filter=>"Point", density=>"150x150")

I was not able to find reference to this issue on the mailing list
archive.
