There are a few well-known tools like OptiPNG, CryoPNG, PNGOUTWin, DeflOpt that are used by skilled web designers to reduce the weight of PNG files to speed-up loading time. I have applied these tools to the files in the branding/firefox/content/ directory, here are the results (size is in bytes, -o is the optimized version): 55620 about-logo.png 49858 about-logo-o.png 48917 about.png 45253 about-o.png 9395 icon64.png 8385 icon64-o.png 5640 icon48.png 5096 icon48-o.png 2659 about-wordmark.png 1559 about-wordmark-o.png Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Apply any optimization tool. Actual Results: PNG files end up smaller. Expected Results: Optimized PNG files should be included.
