    Hello there Kolten,

    hope you’re doing well today! :slight_smile:

    This shouldn’t be happening in the first place, but you might hit some server limits. In order to try to surpass that, could you please edit the wp-config.php file and insert the following line just above the /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */ comment:

    define('WP_SMUSH_API_TIMEOUT', 600);

    Additionally and if you can have some SSH access to your server, you could use the WP_CLI commands that come with the recent Smush versions:

    /**
    
* Optimize image.
    
*
    
* ## OPTIONS
    
*
    
*
    
* : Optimize single image, batch or all images.
    
* ---
    
* default: all
    
* options:
    
*   - all
    
*   - single
    
*   - batch
    
* ---
    
*
    
*
    
* : Attachment ID to compress.
    
* ---
    
* default: 0
    
* ---
    
*
    
* ## EXAMPLES
    
*
    
* # Smush all images.
    
* $ wp smush compress
    
*
    
* # Smush single image with ID = 10.
    
* $ wp smush compress --type=single --image=10
    
*
    
* # Smush first 5 images.
    
* $ wp smush compress --type=batch --image=5
    
*/

    Warm regards,

    Dimitris
