 * It appears that images can only be compressed from the list view in the media
   section, or all images can be compressed. For some reason the search in our list
   view doesn’t work properly, so now I can’t optimise specific images (our library
   is too big to browse otherwise).
 * It would be great if the compress option would also be available from the detail
   view of an image.
 * Additionally, the “compress all images” option, doesn’t appear to have “compress
   all uncompressed images” option. We’re testing the functionality with a free 
   API key, to see if it’s worth purchasing for the full lib, but do we then need
   to re-compress these compressed images? And what happens if compressing the current
   75k images breaks halfway down? Can we resume?
 * Thanks

 * FYI, I have just tested the last comment, closed the browser screen and started
   again and it just starts from scratch. That is really not good for big libraries!

 * Hi Richard,
 * The compress all images remembers which images have been previously compressed,
   and should only compress images that were never compressed yet. So it is safe
   to restart the process in case it breaks halfway.
 * New images are compressed automatically (if configured in the settings of the
   plugin), so this is hopefully only an issue while you are optimising your existing
   library of images.

 * Hi there, as mentioned, it did not remember which images were already compressed
   and started the process from scratch. Does it store the data that an image has
   been optimised after the image has been optimised, or only after the full batch
   has been completed? The latter wouldn’t be very good and this is a concern for
   big libraries when they don’t complete fully.

 * Each image is compressed individually, and the information about compressions
   is stored right away. The bulk process should be totally safe.
