It would appear that the some or all of image thumbnails generated by Enfold theme are sometime larger then original image file. Here are all the resized thumbnails. Here is a test case for which 1200×630 thumbnail is almost 200Kb larger then original.
Original Image: 1200×800 pixel
Resized Thumbnails
Feel free to use the original image above as a test image. I have other images where several thumbnails generated by enfold are larger then original.
I am using Smush-It plugin, but this has NO Impact on the image sizes. Even regenerating thumbnails has no impact. This does not happen with all the image, but there is a large percentage of image where this is a problem.
This is a major hit on the performance of the Enfold Theme.
Please provide a fix for this. I am capable of modifying a function.php file.Here is another test case where 4 thumbnails sizes are bigger then the original image.

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply, this is due to the default WordPress image compression, Enfold only tells WordPress what sizes it should make the compression is up to WordPress which uses the GD image library included with PHP, but it doesn’t account for bit depth & EXIF info, typically reducing these also produces a very low quantity of image, so there is a trade-off. You could try the functions in this article or try a different plugin to compress your images.Best regards,
Mike
