@quantumrocket – Having the images just there on your site should not be an issue, how you display them and what display types with with what options may cause some load issues but that could also be partly due to your server environment … unfortunately the best I can do in a simple answer is: maybe.

Large images yes plus whatever theme you use and ifit creates 15-20 image sizes when you upload yes it will not this plugins fault best thing you can do is optimize the size loss less compression befor upload use this tool.

glad to help tinypng is great keeping and keeps you from running a extra plugin
@bmlawncare – It does look interesting …

I got setup on my galleries retested and found the plugin taking 80% of my sites load time and it is not even released so Yes it will slow your site down to many SQL tables and queries.
awesome for galleries but not worth all those tables and entries to be called upon had to remove, spent about a hour removing just all the SQL from plugin in my database last night.
That seriously needs to be addressed it would be the perfect plugin if it wasn’t for all that, then had to remove all the folders and files manually too after uninstall.
Sorry switched to hugeit, hope to see progress in future hope this info helps
@bmlawncare – Thanks for the input but it would have been much better in a new topic so the OP doesn’t get lost in this conversation.
