Bill,

Here's one of the pics :
http://www.europephoto.com/info/dsc_41219.jpg
It's one of the pics I took on last weekend. That problem isn't limited
to that picture only. I tested jhead on several other pics, and the
problem is the same.  Moreover, the pics come from my Nikon camera, and
I did not change anything on my camera from months now.

#echo $JPEGMEM
(nothing)

#echo $JPEGMEM
1024

I then launch jhead in one directory which contains only 1 picture (the
dsc_41219.jpg one):

#cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "model name" && date && jhead -autorot * &&
date
model name      : AMD Athlon(TM) XP 2400+

19 seconds is very very long. I used jhead to rotate hundreds of
pictures on my 300MHz Thinkpad some time ago. I don't remember jhead
being that slow on my Thinkpad, while I'm using jhead on my XP2400+
desktop right now.

Nicolas.
