This can be very useful for limited bandwidth especially in Indonesia :) One of the techniques is to lower the image resolution, here are the examples from my blog:

Header image – Turbo feature enabled:
Header image compressed
Footer image – Turbo feature disabled:
Footer image uncompressed
Footer image – Turbo feature enabled:
Footer image compressed
