Can you recommend the CloudFlare image optimizing me anyway? I heard about this technique but don't know how to apply for my blog sites
Does it make my blogs really faster or is it getting slower?

I will not recommend it because you can easily do it from your blog, using a plugin like EWWW or with a script like the one I'm using.

what is the meaning for these commands


Code:
cd /var/www
find . -name *.jp* | xargs jpegoptim --strip-all -m76
find . -iname '*.png' -print0 | xargs -0 optipng -o7 -preserve
why do i need to run them? can I ignore this step?

If you use my script it will do it automatically.

Code:
# For debian/Ubuntu
wget -qO optimize.sh https://git.virtubox.net/virtubox/wp-optimize/raw/master/deb-wp-optimize.sh && bash optimize.sh

#For Centos/RedHat
cd /var/www
wget -qO optimize.sh https://git.virtubox.net/virtubox/wp-optimize/raw/master/centos-wp-optimize.sh && bash optimize.sh

#For cPanel
cd /home/public_html
wget -qO optimize.sh https://git.virtubox.net/virtubox/wp-optimize/raw/master/centos-wp-optimize.sh && bash optimize.sh
But if you want to do it manually, you have to run the command :
Code:
find . -name *.jp* | xargs jpegoptim --strip-all -m76
find . -iname '*.png' -print0 | xargs -0 optipng -o7 -preserve
The first one find and optimize the jpg files, and the second do the same for the png

I will try to install your sciprt and see how it will work but I need to backup my data first before running these commands

Code:
find . -name *.jp* | xargs jpegoptim --strip-all -m76
find . -iname '*.png' -print0 | xargs -0 optipng -o7 -preserve
I am afraid that it will make my image files corrupted after scanned and optimized them.

If i don't use your script, is there a way to optimize my images with Cloudflare like i asking or Cloudflare already done that for sites using their CDN services?

The process is fully lossless, jpegoptim and optipng are open-sources softwares available on the all the most popular linux distribution.
If you don't use this script, there are several wordpress plugins to do the job. EWWW, WP Smush etc ..
Cloudflare doesn't optimize image with the CDN services
