Hi, i have create two webpages with slightly different layout, with the preference of using the first. But the issue with the first option is that the page size is much bigger, at 2.2MB page size. Is there any way that I could reduce the page size? Many thanks.

(a) http://maxirave.sg/ – 2.2MB page size
(b) http://maxirave.sg/home/ – 0.85MB page size

Hi,

The difference is that the bigger page uses flex blocks among the content, while the smaller page uses default predefined blocks.

Predefined blocks use an exact cropped thumbnail

So the images will be exactly as the module requires.

Flex blocks have a selection of thumb sizes – http://prntscr.com/mnmdqh
So for example this flex block is set to load a thumb of 1068px which would be to big

Try setting a smaller thumb size for the flex blocks when the modules are small. This will reduce the overall page size.

Thanks
