Title:
  Exporting huge PNG files

Status in The Gimp:
  New
Status in gimp package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi, about large PNG files w/o smart lossy compression techniques. GIMP
  creates very large PNGs compared to TinyPNG (http://tinypng.org/) with
  smart lossy compression techniques. I was able to reduce file size
  from 161.3 KB to 48.4 KB, that's -70% file size reduction! I hope this
  can be used in GIMP by default in the near future.
