Is this normal?

Hi.  Running mgetty on a pentium 166 (sco OSV), when I receive a fax that I
want to send to a printer, it takes about 1 minute *per page* to convert
the g3 files to pcl using the command:

g3topbm fax.g3 | \
pnmscale -xysize 2479 3508 | \
pgmtopnm -fs | \
pbmtolj -resolution 300 >> pclfile

Is it normal for this to be so slow?  Anyone have a preferred g3->pcl
method?
