Product Resized Images Not Generating

M2.4.4

After clicking “Clear Product Image Cache” in an attempt to resolve some product image issues, it turns out every single product photo on our store went kaput. Ok, sure, makes sense.

But doesn’t Magento automatically generate these resized images on page load? Even still, shouldn’t I see my placeholder image instead of… well, nothing?

Is my only option to run catalog:image:resize? This command by itself takes hours to finish. This does not seem the least bit ideal. I’m hoping to find a solution like… now?

Is there anything I can look into to figure this one out? Any possible bugs that I’m unaware of?
