Possible performance increases

Hey guys 👋🏻,

Just did a quick check with PageSpeed Insights:

• Pictures could use updates in encoding and compression
• Webfonts are render blocking
• Caching is not present or could be optimised for many resources.

Full report is available here: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?hl=de&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.freecadweb.org

A total score of 75 is not bad - however, there's headroom for improvement. A good page score gives you a significant bump in SEO.

Oh thanks!! Lots of useful things there...

It looks like the single biggest thing is to resize the images so they are the actual size that gets rendered, and consider migrating to a more modern image format. We also are missing a few alt tags on images.

Related PR #178 solves most of the problems here. I don't find pagespeed a very good tool though. The errors it finds for the site are trivial.
