Do u want to make your site faster ? maybe it is then an idea to optimize and compress png or jpg images via your SSH Terminal.
If you got a lots of images you can save many of bytes by just compress images without losing any quality and discrease your website page size.
First we going to install jpegoptim + optipng
# yum install optipng
# yum install jpegoptim
How works optipng ?
optipng file optipng [options] file optipng [options] input.png
How works optipng ?
jpegoptim file.jpeg
jpegoptim [options] file.jpeg
jpegoptim photo.jpeg
First we go check how fast is your website and what your page size is
– Check your site on: http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/
– SAMPLE: 1.87s Load time / 2.3 MB Page size
– Check where your most images are e.g /wp-content/ or /images/
Now we gonna start optimize PNG & JPG/JPEG!
# cd /home/user/domains/domain.com/public_html/wp-content/uploads/
# all images in current directory: jpegoptim *.jpg
# or jpegoptim */*.pg (all directories) or 1 image: jpegoptim image1.jpg
# all images in current directory: optipng *.png
# or optipng */*.png (all directories) or 1 image: optipng image1.png

find -type f -name “*.png” -exec optipng {} \;
find -type f -name “*.jpg” -exec jpegoptim –strip-all {} \;
find -type f -name “*.jpeg” -exec jpegoptim –strip-all {} \;
JPG optimization
cd /path/to/your/image/folder
find . -iname "*.jp*" -print0 | xargs -0 jpegoptim --strip-all -m76
PNG optimization
cd /path/to/your/image/folder
find . -iname '*.png' -print0 | xargs -0 optipng -o7 -preserve
