Introducing Polish: Automatic Image Optimization

On June 5, 2012, Matthew Prince discussed the average web page's increasing data size and the importance of reducing it for faster loading times, especially on mobile devices with limited bandwidth. He introduced a new feature called Polish that optimizes images on websites automatically. The two available modes are Lossless, which removes unnecessary bloat without compromising image quality (21% average file reduction), and Lossy, which applies compression algorithms to suitable images for further optimization (48% average file reduction). While Polish is only available for paid accounts due to added CPU overhead, it significantly improves website performance on wireless devices.
