Hey ..

I'm wondering if you can chime in this thread here: http://www.webpagetest.org/forums/showthread.php?tid=13526&action=lastpost

I was looking at how mozjpeg created smaller files with higher quality, and where I would place the the quality/size line.

I found out that when I compress a JPEG image from 99% to 90% using cjpeg and then use ImageMagick's identify command, it reports 76% quality (not 90%)

Can you help me understand why this is happening?

Thanks! :)
