Yes, and when I executed it, it took forever, and it swapped in around 600MBs 
instantly. Here is the command I ran, maybe something is wrong with that? 
Around 100 pictures were in the folder, but it should do it one by one, and 
not at one time, so it needs like 1000MB of memory.

Maybe my method was wrong, here is how I did it:

convert -quality 90 -scale '800x600>' *.JPG
