Ridiculous huge thumbnails - what happened?

Hi,

I experienced a problem with thumbnails, and furthermore renditions in general.

Thumbnails with a dimension of 200x300px as jpg sometimes have huge sizes, between 15 - 50mb. Yes, thumbnails, not the originals (these are ~25mb). What happened there? And where can I adjust quality settings of renditions? It seems there are jpg quality settings around 100% - it would be enough to cut them down to 85%.

Any help appreciated!

Please try to run Re-index the assets from your host and check the thumbnail size again to see how.

For renditions settings , you can go to Administration >>> Rendition templates . From there , you can adjust the quality of rendition which you want to set.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

It seems to be a problem with embedded colorspaces / profiles. Will investigate further…
I enabled “Set to RGB (images will be compatible with IE8)” - hopefully it removes embedded colorspaces.

Ok, that options didn’t changed the behaviour, the thumbnails are still HUGE with embedded profiles.
ImageMagick provides the commandline option “+profile *” to remove embedded profiles… where may I add that switch? I guess somewheere in assets.cfc or images.cfc but not sure where…

Can you please send us your sample file to check from our site to see how ?

Thanks

Here an example (15mb @ 300px width)

Hi Sushimaster ,

I have take a test with your file , from our site. The thumbnail (preview asset) just about 0.08 mb and the original file is 15mb. Not a huge thumbnail file.

And here’s mine:

As you can see, the thumbnail is still huge. I didn’t change anything in the code, just set in administration the thumbnail size to 300x300, so Razuna’s config is “out-of-the-box”.
Furthermore: The renditions are all fine, none is huge. It’s just the thumbnail which is blown up. Maybe it has a different converting rule than the renditions?

Find the original file here for further tests

As I wrote before: I guess the switch “+profile” will do the trick (removing embedded profiles)… just point me to the file and line number to add :slight_smile:

Please review the original file and check it’s thumbnail on your server. Is it as big as mine was afterwards?
That issue is still open to me.

Sorry we don’t have these issues. Neither do any of our other
installations.
