Hello,

I have recently updated from freebsd 7.0 to freebsd 7.2 and
reinstalled all my normal packages.

What I noticed is that imagemagick started working much much slower
(6 times slower).

So I straced it, and it tells me, that there are way to many "getpid"
commands in it.

Here are the 2 traces, slow (new) and fast (old):

Freebsd 7.2, Magick 6.5.5, slow strace:

Freebsd 7.0, Magick 6.3.6, fast strace:

The command I tried to run was:
convert t1.jpg t2.jpg

Can someone take a look please?
