Are you doing animations?  If not, skip the GIFs.  You can get much
better depth [16 million] in a lot less space with JPEG files.
Some of the compression algorithms avaiable are loss-free, too.  No
matter how small the color table, each pixel is still going to take
its one byte when using GIF.  I see that you set a
gif_eliminate_unused flag, but I am sort of sceptical about how
effective this will really be.  I have never heard of a GIF making
such optimizations.
