Media library loops infinitely

Indeed it does seems to loop for quite a while, and the reason is that OTF is generating fresh thumbnails for all the images in the media library when you view it… the result is that EWWW also optimizes those images when they are generated.

I don’t think OTF used to do that in the Media Library, but it does now. The grid view will also load eventually, just like the list, but it takes longer, because there are generally more images being viewed in grid view. Not sure there is anything I can do on my end to prevent that, a simple check for is_admin() in OTF would probably take care of things.
