 * Hello,
 * when you upload an image to the media library the process of course is slower
   because of the conversion, but it appears too slow, and the user experience is
   very bad.
    Would it be possible to start the conversion process only after the
   upload and the original image preview appears in the media library?
 * The user should see the original image in the media library until the webp is
   ready. By doing so they would not notice the work done in the background.
 * Today I had to deactivate the plugin because the client thoughts the upload is
   too slow. And this is really a pity.
 * In any case, thank you very much for this amazing plugin.
 * Have a great day!
 * Jose
