title: How to resize high resolution tif images efficiently and quickly?
body: <p>I am working on a project where I have users uploading print quality high resolution tif images and I need to create a lower resolution web quality preview for the user if/when they come back to view what they uploaded. </p>
  
  <p>Currently I have a working solution to resize these images using <code>ImageIO.read</code> and <code>ImageIO.write</code> but it is taking up to 15 minutes to modify and save these preview images. I am wondering if there is a better solution that would take less time to complete. Or is this a RAM issue that I am experiencing?</p>
