Images account for 63% of page weight (avg 687k) http://httparchive.org/interesting.php#bytesperpage … so: 1) a bit silly to whine over 30k of JS 2) going retina? use vector
@paul_irish @jaffathecake @thijs @tonygentilcore What if the full-scale image is used later on? Couldn’t that be why it can’t be optimized?

@mathias@paul_irish@jaffathecake@tonygentilcore Browsers cache the original resource on disk so that’s not really an issue. -
@thijs@paul_irish@jaffathecake@tonygentilcore Not an issue for memory consumption, but re-reading from disk is a wasteful operation too. - 3 more replies
