In times when you have systems with several cores, you might want to use make for this task. This could work as follows (not tested, just written):
# cat Makefile
.SUFFIXES:
.SUFFIXES: .gif .jpg

.SUFFIXES:
.SUFFIXES: .gif .jpg
JPGS=$(wildcard *.jpg)
GIFS=$(subst jpg,gif,$(JPGS))
default: $(GIFS)
.jpg.gif:
convert -verbose -colors 8 $< $@
then:
make -j <number of CPUs>
(note that there must be a tabulator before the convert line in order to make this work)
