Optimization levels:
-o0 <=> -o1 -nx -nz (0 or 1 trials)
-o1 <=> -zc9 -zm8 -zs0 -f0 (1 trial)
(or...) -zc9 -zm8 -zs1 -f5 (1 trial)
-o2 <=> -zc9 -zm8 -zs0-3 -f0,5 (8 trials)
-o3 <=> -zc9 -zm8-9 -zs0-3 -f0,5 (16 trials)
-o4 <=> -zc9 -zm8 -zs0-3 -f0-5 (24 trials)
-o5 <=> -zc9 -zm8-9 -zs0-3 -f0-5 (48 trials)
-o6 <=> -zc1-9 -zm8 -zs0-3 -f0-5 (120 trials)
-o7 <=> -zc1-9 -zm8-9 -zs0-3 -f0-5 (240 trials)
-o7 -zm1-9 <=> -zc1-9 -zm1-9 -zs0-3 -f0-5 (1080 trials)
Notes:
The combination for -o1 is chosen heuristically.
Exhaustive combinations such as "-o7 -zm1-9" are not generally recommended.
Examples:
optipng file.png (default speed)
optipng -o5 file.png (slow)
optipng -o7 file.png (very slow)
