What is the size of those files ? How much files do you display on a page ?
Is it much quicker if you do a test without watermarking those files ? The
point is my earlier post was to make sure that you work on files that are as
small as possible (sometimes one uses the real file for "thumbnails" instead
of using a real thumbnail that would save download or processing time).
I don't know how good is ASPIMage. You could likely compare this one with
some other components by processing a batch of x files and see how it
performs ?
Instead of storing all files, you could perhaps have a "cache" like system.
It would avoid duplicating all the files but you could have still perhaps
some gain especially if some of those files tends to be more frequently used
than others (a daily job could delete too old files).
Good luck.

"protect" the image by having some kind of label inside the image.

Exactly.
The idea is to display these images on different website (12 for the
moment), with a different watemark for each (the url of the site will
appear on the bottom right of the image).
And I need to keep the original image because on other websites, it will
be displayed without watermark.
I thought of duplicating the images but it will take too much diskspace.
