Enfold creates in addition to each uploaded image at least 17 additional images from 36×36 pixel to 1196×630 in the uploads folder.
This leads to large memory load on the server and in turn makes backups more difficult.
This was not the case with Enfold before, or I didn’t notice it because the websites were always smaller by a lot. I crop my images cleanly beforehand and compress them immediately and then upload the images to the mediamanager and also always use the “Vollständige Größe” of the import. Especially with images with 1800×400 in the header, the page inflates unnecessarily.
I am aware that wordpress splits images into 3 formats but do you have to do that in Enfold as well? Or can you add a function for professionals who want to plan their image management themselves.
Otherwise I love your theme but this is really annoying. Maybe you have tips or I have a wrong workflow or do something wrong here thanks for your help.

be aware of the new snippet for uploading compression rate of images:
// new snippet to set the compression level of calculted images
add_filter("avf_jpeg_quality", "avf_set_quality_mod", 9999, 1);
add_filter("avf_wp_editor_set_quality", "avf_set_quality_mod", 9999, 1);
function avf_set_quality_mod($quality) {
$quality = 65; // compression level what you like in percent
return $quality;
}
as described there, however, it is only responsible for the upload process. For the recalculating there are good plugins that do the rest after inserting the snippet for the already uploaded images.
Thank you for your help will be test it.
