Problem

I'm looking for the fastest command-line image converter for Linux which can read a JPEG image, scale it down to at most 1366x768, and write a quality 50 JPEG image. Something like this, but much faster than ImageMagick: I've also tried this: So I'd like to have a program, preferably written in C, …

Error Output

$ convert -resize x768 -quality 50 foo42.jpg foo42.th.jpg
# takes 0m16.713s for my test image set
