Have you tried using the -size hint with convert? From the man page:
To make a thumbnail of a JPEG image, use:
convert -size 120x120 cockatoo.jpg -resize 120x120
+profile "*" thumbnail.jpg
In this example, '-size 120x120' gives a hint to the JPEG decoder that
the image is going to be downscaled to 120x120, allowing it to run
faster by avoiding returning full-resolution images to ImageMagick for
the subsequent resizing operation.
