Photein uses Minimagick for image management and conversion. Have you had a look at ruby-vips? From what I hear it should be better/faster/use less memory than ImageMagick, especially for the standard image formats.

A special mention to ruby-vips, which is (along with maybe php, I guess) one of the few language bindings maintained by the author of libvips, which should become the defacto image processing manipulation library.
