    I’m starting to use wordpress and after an hour only 5 images were optimized (I have about 20 thousand images) and it seems that it will take forever to optimize the whole site, is this normal? Is there anything I can do to speed it up??
    I’m using an infinite plan

    It’s been more than 4 hours since I sent the first message and so far 15 images have been optimized, I have no idea why it’s so slow.

    Hi @rafaelzezao

    Thank you so much for your patience!

    Let me clarify that the speed highly depends on many factors, such as a number of thumbnails, WebP, server configuration.

    Can you please let me know how many are the thumbnail sizes you have enabled through Imagify Settings?

    We usually recommend unchecking any thumbnail sizes that you are sure you don’t need through Settings > Imagify in the “Files optimization” section.

    Also, you can try to increase your memory and time value available for optimization by adding the following lines of code to your wp-config.php file(before the “That’s all! Stop editing…” message):

    define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’ );
    set_time_limit(0);

    Feel free to let me know if the above help.

    Best Regards,

    Ioanna
