I've developed smc.freeimage exclusively to process large amounts of
TIFF images. I estimate that we have processed more than twelve million
unique TIFF images with about half a petabyte of data. The packages uses
Cython to wrap FreeImage (containing libtiff, libpng, libjpeg, libraw
and more) and LittleCMS2.

The package is mostly fitted to our needs, a bit limited (e.g. no
conversion of CMYK to RGB with color management) and doesn't follow
recent best practices for Cython code, but it does it job well. I need
to clean up the code base some day when more people get interested in
the lib.
