Comment (by peterdavehello):

 Hi @joemcgill,

 Seems the problem is worse then I said originally, actually I found that
 some pictures didn't be manually optimized still have the same problem
 with this resize, for example, I use the PrintScreen key under Linuxmint
 17.3 Cinnamon to catch the screen, the process never takes more than few
 seconds which means there is no additional process to optimize the image,
 but it's still become larger after the resize in WordPress, that makes no
 sense.
