Answer: Yes . These unused images will cause load on your website slow down the website functionality. As you keep on uploading the images, the website keeps on building up the CPU usage, cache and other processes, until it reaches its peak and breaks down. (S5)
Answer: Unsued images should not be affecting your site in terms of performance as those are not being used. They are, however, using the allocated disk. (dp)
Question: Which image format is better for website? E.g.JPG/PNG/WebP
Answer: WebP format is best as it dies not consume much resource but resolution is not that great! (S5) I’d say WebP. (dp)
