How do I optimize my background image?

That was after I already ran it through Kraken to optimize it. I choose the lossy option which I think reduces it the most. So how do I reduce it by 13% more if Kraken can't do it?

Be aware that PageSpeed isn't just looking at the image optimization. It's also looking at the resolution in pixels. You could run the image through every optimizer on the planet with the highest levels of compression. If PageSpeed thinks the image is larger in pixels than it needs to be, it will ding your score.
