MiniMagick for the win

Despite being a usually reliable source for best practices, Railscasts shocked me a little with one of its updates showing the use of on-trend CarrierWave and RMagick.

If you need to use ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick, then please do yourself a favour and use MiniMagick

It's easier to work with and much lighter on system resources than RMagick.
