Moving to mobile-l.
The main page changes a lot so it is not the best example. Today for
example our image weight is 15.36 kB
I'm a little confused what strategy=mobile does differently to
strategy=desktop - any idea what that is doing differently?
Note there is also a verbose mode:
With recommendations to optimise the following images (there is one
more but that is outside our control - it is a thumbnail of an image):

Size: 1.8KiB
Can be improved by 61%
(good to know - I'm not sure where this file lives... how can we get
this optimised?)
The Barack Obama article is more damning (~1.97 MB with
strategy=mobile whatever that means and 590.06 kB with strategy
desktop). Sam Smith and I have been talking about only rendering the
lead section in a future version of mobile and delaying loading of
images / sections until they are needed. We previously explored this
but it didn't get enough support and I think it is worth revisiting
now the MobileFrontend code is in a stronger place.
