Cloudflare Polish automatically optimizes images by resizing, converting to WebP, and applying lossless compression. When Polish is enabled, Cloudflare caches the optimized versions of the images. This means the original image is not cached; only the optimized version is. Polish can significantly reduce image sizes and improve performance.
