In-browser Clipping Masks for JPGs are changing my life

Swapping out some rather giant PNGs with transparency for a JPG loaded inside an SVG file with tiny, 2-color PNG transparency mask. Not exactly a new execution, but the first time I've *really* needed it in production.

Still more optimization work to be done, but this one thing has reduced the file size of this single view by over 80%.
