Optimizing existing images

2. In the left-hand pane, click Settings, and then click EWWW Image Optimizer. The EWWW Image Optimizer Settings page appears.
3. Click the Bulk Optimize link.
4. Use the Choose how long to pause between images slider to select an interval (in seconds) between each image optimization.Five to ten seconds is a reasonable delay interval. If you use a very short interval, site and server performance can be affected. Alternatively, if you have a lot of images to optimize and set a long interval, it will take a long time to optimize all of the images.
5. Under Optimize Media Library, click Start optimizing. EWWW Image Optimizer provides progress updates as it optimizes images.
6. To optimize additional image files, such as those in themes and other plugins, click Scan and optimize.
7. To view which files have been optimized, click Show Optimized Images.To re-optimize your image files, select the Force re-optimize check box, and then click Optimize Again.
