Which AWS instance suitable for ImageMagick processing?

I am currently using aws t1 micro instances. Recently, I just installed the textcleaner script from Fred's ImageMagick Scripts. I realised that the textcleaner process takes a long time to complete.

If I were about to upgrade my instance, which instance should I choose? The one with more CPU-processing power or more graphic-processing power?

I just found this on serverFault:

In other words, look for machines with minimal amount of memory (4-8GB) and many cores or even many CPUs. If you're using Amazon, then High-CPU Instances is what you're looking for. For very large load, it may be good idea to look at cluster instances.
