Hey, author here. To clarify, our uploads go to our servers first (where we resize for thumbnails, etc) then go to S3.

Do you use GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick? Shell out or python bindings?

What settings do you use for: MAGICK_MEMORY_LIMIT MAGICK_MAP_LIMIT MAGICK_DISK_LIMIT

Do you tune them dynamically or just set and forget?
