When you upload a large image, WordPress automatically scales it to a lower resolution while keeping the original image intact. Over time, this can lead to increased storage usage. This plugin helps you identify large images and resize them to preserve disk space and improve load times on pages where the full image is used.
Yangra Image Resizer scans for images using cron. For convenience, it displays the largest images first. Please be careful when resizing images — it’s important to do this carefully and create a backup first. Yangra Image Resizer continuously scans your images, so you may notice new images appearing on the front page when you revisit.

Image Processing Queue is an alternative to on-the-fly (OTF) image processing (e.g. <a href="https://github.com/syamilmj/Aqua-Resizer" rel="nofollow ugc">Aqua Resizer</a>) 
for WordPress themes.
Like OTF image processing, it allows theme developers to define image sizes for specific theme 
contexts rather than defining a size for all uploaded images. This greatly reduces the number of 
resized images and hence reduces disk space usage and the wait time when uploading an image.
Image Processing Queue differs from OTF image processing in how it behaves when an image doesn’t 
exist yet. OTF generates the image right away and the end-user has to wait for the image to be 
generated. With Image Processing Queue there’s no waiting. It immediately returns an image that 
already exists (that is the closest fit to the image size requested) and adds the image size to 
a queue. Image sizes are quietly generated in the background using <a href="https://github.com/A5hleyRich/wp-queue" rel="nofollow ugc">WP Queue</a>.
Image Processing Queue also accommodates responsive themes much better than OTF. It allows theme 
developers to define a list of image sizes that will work best for their theme’s responsive 
breakpoints. Images generated by Image Processing Queue are added to the post meta so that WordPress 
core’s responsive functions will automatically add them to the <code>srcset</code> and delete them from the 
filesystem when the image is deleted from the Media Library.

It works!

tbh, it took me a few minutes to fully understand how this library would benefit my workflow and my clients - but once I started to grasp the changes in development and how I wouldn't be running Regenerate Thumbnails every time I needed a new image size, it clicked!

I think with some more detailed documentation and usage examples this could be a near perfect solution to the image size problem in many themes and plugins.



This could be a game changer!

Real intresting approach and something that should be considered for WP Core - especially the Batch Processing Stuff isn#t only useful for images ...
