From 2 comments
Memory management for a one-and-done image conversion isn't much of an issue. The program will pretty much allocate, run a few very fast GCs since almost all memory usage is in a…

Rust image crate
From 1 comment
Last time I looked, the `image` crate was the defacto standard for doing image manipulation in Rust, and in my opinion its API is/was pretty bad. (Had several different types for…
