Data Scope
Timeframe
April – September 2025
Data Type
Aggregated server-side metrics, including images optimized, file size processed, and estimated visitors served
Collection Method
Automatically recorded through Optimole’s CDN and analytics systems during image delivery
Coverage
Global, including all active Optimole users during this period
Privacy Note: All data is anonymized, aggregated, and does not include any personally identifiable or customer-specific information.
Performance Testing
Sample Size
20 high-traffic websites
Testing Setup
Automated via n8n workflow using Google PageSpeed Insights API, with separate tests for mobile and desktop
Comparison
Each site was analyzed twice, once with Optimole enabled and once with Optimole disabled (?optml_off=true)
Metrics Captured
Performance Score, Speed Index, FCP, LCP, TTI, and FID
Note: Scores were collected from live production environments. Variations due to network, caching, or content layout were minimized but may still influence results slightly.
Assumptions
Since Optimole delivers images dynamically through its CDN, compression levels vary depending on visitor screen size, device type, and browser capabilities.
For estimation purposes, a typical optimization range of 80–90% was applied when calculating bandwidth savings and environmental impact.
