Too high-quality images without using compression

When saving JPEG and WebP images, you can specify the compression ratio from 1 to 100. The lower the compression ratio, the less the resulting file weighs. At the same time, quality is partially lost.

Pinched images with a quality of less than 70 have obvious visual defects, which is why their use is undesirable, as they look ugly and cheapen the design of the site.

But too high-quality images are also bad, as they weigh a lot, which slows down page loading.

Use a compression ratio of 90 for your JPEG and WebP images.

Demonstration of the difference in page loading time when using images with 100 and 90 quality:
