It would only be nice to be able to do this programmedly to smush separate folders automatically.

I, who had smush as my first choice, didn’t imagine that others would take longer to process.

I’ve been using Smush for a while now, and it’s always been a great plugin for reducing the size of my images without sacrificing quality. But the new parallel compression feature is a game-changer. It’s so much faster than the old way of compressing images, and it makes it much easier to optimize my entire media library.

I highly recommend Smush to anyone who wants to improve the speed and performance of their WordPress website. The new parallel compression feature is just another reason why Smush is the best image optimization plugin on the market.

So, let’s start at the beginning. We have our 60 images – the same as the other example. And they require compression.

This is a good feature for us!

“For example, there are no credits to buy once you hit an optimization limit. Nope. The free version of Smush will pause at 50 images; however, just click resume, and it starts right back up. That’s not the case with most other image optimization plugins.”

I thought Smush recently got rid of the 50 image bulk limit? If I’m not dreaming, perhaps it’d be a good time to update this wording! :)

InstaWP? I like how easy it is to add images for testing. Does it have a downside to it? I’ve never used it for anything else.

Cheers!

It streamlines the testing process creating a new site with just a few clicks.

Once the admin of the new WordPress site was created, we added images to the site for free with the Instant Image plugin.”

I dont really like this plugin to be honest.

Now, multiple thumbnails (and originals — if enabled) are processed in parallel for multifold improvement in processing speed.”

This is a great improvement since the previous version!
