Using jpegoptim for optimize, speed up servers

Using jpegoptim for speed up servers while optimizing pictures.
For example for a adsense publisher, you might have noticed Red flag for image optimization problem. I see for the sites I manage is the image optimization problem. Fortunately, Google is not just showing you the problem , here is the best i recommend (because of i did it), which worked well. All of the commands are in SSH interface .

you have to install libjpeg first. It’s a library that’s being used by the tool to optimize the file.

yum -y install libjpeg

Code (markup):

Once done, we can go ahead witht he installation of jpegoptim by downloading, compiling and installing the tool.

cd /tmp
mkdir jpegoptim
cd jpegoptim
wget http://www.kokkonen.net/tjko/src/jpegoptim-1.3.0.tar.gz
zcat jpegoptim-1.3.0.tar.gz | tar xf -
cd jpegoptim-1.3.0
./configure
make
make strip
make install

Code (markup):

And now, start the optimization. Here’s the command to find all the jpeg files on your server.

find / -iregex '.*\.\(jpg\|JPG\|jpeg\|JPG\)' -type f -exec /usr/local/bin/jpegoptim --strip-all {} ';'

Code (markup):

And you’re done.

Best wishes ,

You don't think that Deflate or Gzip compression at the web server level is sufficient?

 

Maybe. it's all about google dev recommendations and solution know-how.

 

Have you considered using YSlow Smush.It? If you use wordpress I think there is a plugin that will automatically compress all of your images. If not it's easy enough to do manually.

I think that load time is a big factor, but with fast connections of today image size is always the only issue.
