How to optimize large WordPress image libraries safely
Large Media Libraries need controlled processing. Instead of trying to convert thousands of images in one request, Titanium uses background queues with pause, resume, stop and live progress. Pro adds scheduling, advanced exclusions and WP-CLI workflows for larger sites and agencies.
Large-site workflow
- Run server capability checks before starting heavy conversion jobs.
- Build the status database so you know the real starting point.
- Use background queues instead of repeated manual page refreshes.
- Pause or stop the queue if the host is under heavy load.
- Run missing-only or retry tasks after the first pass instead of rebuilding everything.
- Use Pro scheduling or WP-CLI for controlled maintenance on bigger sites.
