Description
Running optipng and jpegoptim (lossless optimization of images) on all of the images in HEAD could give us some significant savings in terms of file sizes.
I have attached logs for running both of these tools on the Moodle repo:
find -name "*.png" | xargs -n 10 -P 2 optipng -o7 > optipng.log
find -name "*.jpg" | xargs -n 1 -P 2 jpegoptim --strip-all > jpegoptim.log
Some highlights:
./theme/cornflower/images/hdbg.jpg 41x112 24bit Adobe [OK] 13047 --> 506 bytes (96.12%), optimized.
./theme/cornflower/images/classroomrevolution.jpg 165x25 24bit Adobe [OK] 21437 --> 6826 bytes (68.16%), optimized.
./theme/cornflower/images/hdbgend.jpg 41x112 24bit Adobe [OK] 13047 --> 506 bytes (96.12%), optimized.

Here is another tool (firefox extension) that can be used:

+1 from me! Sounds great for HEAD! Thanks!
