 * Greetings, I’ve encountered such a problem: compression works great, but even
   after full compression, it keeps doing a full compression again and again, not
   just for new images. In the “Images optimized in the media library” section, 
   it always shows 0, while in “Total savings” and “Images processed” the numbers
   change. Why is this happening and what does it depend on?

 * Hello [@southklad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/southklad/)
 * Hope you are doing well today.
 * Could you please go to wp-admin -> media library, switch to list view and check
   the Smush column? You can see which images are being compressed and if there 
   are any issues with the Bulk by pressing the re-smush if the images are not compressed.

 * If you are seeing that the images are compressed in media library but Smush stats
   still show zero, there might be a plugin conflict causing this issue and I would
   suggest running a full conflict test.
