• Install and activate Twenty Twenty-Two theme
• Install and activate Theme Check plugin
• Go to Appearance > Theme Check and select Twenty Twenty Two
• Click on check it

You will see, WARNING: assets/images/ducks.jpg is 768.2 KB in size. Large file sizes have a negative impact on website performance and loading time. Compress images before using them.

This is not a big issue but the themes team recommends theme author put the images less than 500KB.

Here is the pull request ​https://github.com/WordPress/twentytwentytwo/pull/349

Thanks — @jffng and I noticed this one yesterday too. Must have missed it while we were compressing everything. I'm attaching an alternate version that's about 50% of the file size. This should be a much better balance of quality + file size.
