Sorry, but I have to wonder what you thought was going on that you didn't even look to see what ImageMagick was. But, yes it is an image manipulation application. I have no idea how it compares to PhotoShop.

So, if I want to get a same speed like the guy demonstrate in youtube,
I need to change all imgaes to 1872 × 1404 px (this is a Screen resolution of kobo auru one). Am I right?
Probably. I don't usually read comics, but optimizing the images to the device probably helps. But, I tried a comic I have as a CBZ on my Aura ONE. The 3057x1988 and full colour paging through it was slower than that video, but not by much.

I also have a kepub version of it generated with KCC, but for my Glo HD. KCC resize and converts them to greyscale while packing them as appropriate for the device. Reading through that was as fast as the CBZ. Calibre can also do the conversion and resize the images, but I think I have my options set to not alter the images.

I don't know what to suggest for the optimizing. I can't remember if anyone has suggested options here, and I don't do it enough to have worked it out for myself.
