2014-15 elearning audio/video/graphics/bandwidth/html5 standards

At risk of over simplification  you don't need to really worry too much about optimizing your files. Storyline does a pretty fine job of doing it for you when you publish the file. I would err to using higher res images than necessary and letting SL re sample to the proper resolution.

the overall story file size is going to vary considerably depending on what your content is. Video/audio and large graphics can quickly increase the file size over a simple text-based course.

Hi,

I have come across with the similar situation of the file size issue. As my client place has the bandwidth issue, we need to produce to their optimal size package. 

Please let me know what are the ways and means to optimize the same in facilitating my customer's satisfaction.

Thanks

Hi Suresh, 

There isn't a one size fits all approach, as it'll depend on many factors.

For example, will these courses be mostly text or media heavy with a lot of images, audio, or videos to load? Storyline does preload content as detailed here, so that should help with loading of media assets, especially if you space them out every few slides.

You'll also want to check that users are viewing a course on a supported browser. What version of Storyline are you using? You'll see the Storyline 3 system requirements here which would give you a sense of what learners would need regarding browser version to view a course.
