Well I've seen some code in php.net about creating thumbnails fast, basically some guy wrote an alternative to imagecopyresampled and called it fastimagecopyresampled. I decided to see how fast it really is, so to compare I created a script that would create thumbnails from a bunch of images using ImageMagick.
And here are the results:
Using ImageMagick to generate 6 thumbnails from a gallery.
Now using GD to generate the same thumbnails, I deleted the old ones.
It is clear who the winner is, definitely GD.
