I noticed that the compression of images scaled by the image service is very low. The resulting image size is factors higher then it would be with reasonable jpeg compression settings. Since Google Java does not support any of the AWT classes it is very hard to find a workaround.
There is a feature request to add an additional quality parameter to the image service under http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=2410 My questions are: 1) Does anybody know a workaround (e.g. alternative jpeg encoding library) that works on appengine? 2) Is there a time frame when (if ever) this limitation is going to be fixed? PS: If you also suffer from that issue, you could give it a vote on the URL above. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
