Well, this is exactly what I needed for work... we process like 200MB tiffs and imagemagick speed and mem use is an issue
I found out about it while making a Jekyll plugin, the speed improvement is really noticeable
Yeah, I tested it on some large TIFF datasets I have around. 3x less memory and 4x faster.
