 Replying to [comment:37 lbr]:
 > I've found this
 [http://www.rubblewebs.co.uk/imagemagick/speed/Speed_tests_1.pdf
 benchmark] that uses GD, imagemagick's php extension and exec command to
 process some images. The result isnt very different.

 I just wanted to note that performance isn't the only reason for wanting
 to switch from GD to ImageMagick. Better visual results are also a
 contributing factor.

 > I also done a small script in php to measure both cases, and
 graphicsmagick (this extension is in beta) - it's attached
 (benchmark_imagick.php).

 Do we have any stats on hosting support for graphicsmagick / ImageMagic /
 ImagicK?
