Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 124632
Optimize PNG files on the website
Last modified: 2014-04-25 18:13:09 UTC
The largest object on the http://openoffice.org/ homepage is currently a 16x16 image file with an RSS icon, 47 KB: http://www.openoffice.org/images/logo-rss-16.png This wastes ~45 KB per request, so ~45 GB every day at one million visits per day. The PNG should be optimized with any image processing program such as the GIMP, or with ImageMagick (convert, use the --colors option and no dithering), or anything. The resulting file should be attached to this issue. While at it, a cursory look at the other PNG files in the homepage would be useful.
Created attachment 83142 [details] New "logo-rss-16.png" file I've attached a much smaller file: original "logo-rss-16.png" --> 48,568 byte new "logo-rss-16_new.png" --> 750 byte
"pescetti" committed SVN revision 1588972 #i124632# Replace RSS logo with a much smaller file (equivalent image).
Thanks a lot, this was meant for a newcomer but it's good to see it fixed! A quick look at the images/ folder showed no other problematic files, so closing. [ The SVN robot above got confused somehow: this is not fixed in Rev 0 obviously, but in http://svn.apache.org/r1588972 ]
Now the fix is also online.
