It struck me the other day that not caching image files would be an easy way to speed up Magento but am I missing something?
I resize all my images Thumbnails 65x65, Small 161x161, Main 250x250 before I upload them so they are a known quantity.
It seems that responsive websites will resize them in the html/css anyway (including cached images).
I store my images and skin files on a CDN and it seems like one huge overhead to resize the images and copy them to the CDN for every image view when I already know the size of the images. Surely it would be far quicker to render a page if it just points to the same image file on the CDN without all the caching overhead.
So I guess I'm asking, am I missing something obvious (or unobvious) here, as I feel I must be given the seemingly non-existent posts about it anywhere on Google or the Forums?
Has anyone tried it?
Thanks
