Description
This issue has been migrated from [#4724](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4724).
---
**Description:**
Did a brief test on the images hosted o nmy homeserver.
* Using `jpegoptim` on jpegs generally saved 40-60% of the original size.
* Converting images to better formats (my test was about *WebP* but it's just one) resulted 10-20% of the original size (and actually reducing the quality resulted more than 90% savings).
Images are large, and it's getting bigger every minute. Optimising, mostly without quality loss would be a great saver.
