You're taking this thread down the wrong path.  I asked for assistance
writing a simple script to do what I want it to do.  Accomplishing that
will fix all of my "problems" WRT Imagemagick.  I didn't ask for help in
optimizing or fixing the Lenny i386 Imagemagick package. ;)

I think you're missing something.  Go back and read my original post.
If you still don't understand, maybe refresh yourself on Linux process
scheduling.
