My input was a 100x100 JPEG image, the transform: resize(85, 85), the result was also JPEG in agreement with my guess that the original encoding will be preserved, but, surprisingly, the result data could be up to 5 times longer byte wise. Explicitly enforcing PNG output did not solve the issue ... BUT ... explicitly asking for JPEG did solve it! And now I am happy -- images are resized and also smaller. Still, an unexpected adventure :-)
