Why does it take more time to load a smaller file vs Larger image files? My pre-answer is it's not the file size, it's how the files are interpreted / compiled? (put together after downloaded to browser?)

In the future please use a more descriptive subject line. This will benefit you with a more rapid response from the most qualified person in a given area. Often times posts with generic subjects are overlooked due to the volume of posts that must be addressed.
Please take a moment to review the Forum Rules .
regarding your question: which smaller files are you referring to?
see the larger image files content load times and they appear to be the longest on the list.Resource type start offset first byte load time Bytes (size) code

Thanks for the reply and sorry I will try to post a better title from now on. I had made a mistake and I just want this page to load faster. How might I do that as I have tried loading smaller files which doesn't seem to be helping out the page load time.
Thank you.

- the site is loading fairly decently for me a 2.7MB page loading in 7 - 8 seconds. If you are on shared hosting that is not bad. You can compress image file sizes, and you can consider some of the recommendations from resources like GTmetrix to tweak it a bit. Personally I have recently switched to SSD hosting and it is worth every penny of difference. the load times are much faster than before.

Thank you for the reply, and sorry about my late one as well. I used Irfanview and pugins for the images and that helped greatly. i will next convert png to jpg for better results as well.
How come even with GZIP enabled as wll as RokBootser, it still suggests CSS compression please?

that is a question best posed to the peoople who created their testing system. I do not put a lot of stock in these testing systems grades. The timeline, in my view, is the thing to which one should pay attention.
