Actually, I just tried to open mapserv64.png with gimp, and export it as
a non-interlaced or interlaced PNG. And the non-interlaced version is 60
kB vs 96 kB for interlaced. So interlacing vs non-interlacing isn't the
cause here.
Looking more closely at mapserv64.png vs mapserv76.png , they are
visually different. I suspect the rendering to be of higher quality in
7.6 due to anti-aliasing and perhaps better quantization to 8-bit. You
could perhaps try to turn off antialiasing in your CLASS.STYLE. This has
been re-vived very recently for AGG line rendering. It is master only
however.

Even,
Thank you. I had ignored the difference in the interlacing of the two
images because I didn't think it would have affected the size.
The maprgbapng.c file no longer exists in MapServer 6.4 or 7.6. There
is an "if ( interlaced ..." code block in mapoutput.c that is the same
in 6.4 and 7.6. I tried forcing it ON and rebuilding 7.6 but the
output image still is not interlaced. Maybe that code is just a left
over. Or maybe AGG doesn't support interlacing as
https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/outputformat.html
<https://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/outputformat.html> seems to suggest.
In any case, thanks again.

Richard,
your 6.4 image is a interlaced PNG, whereas the 7.6 is a
non-interlaced one.
I see in the git history a relevant commit:

But this predates 6.4 release by several years, so this doesn't
explain why you see a different behavior, unless something in 6.4
still turned on interlacing on in that configuration.
From what I can see in the doc, the interlacing mode was removed
in the 7.0 release when GD went off, so I don't think you can do
much. I guess that could be re-added but would require some coding.

I get significantly different image sizes between MapServer 6.4
and 7.6 with the same output format definition. I've tried many
variations of the following.
OUTPUTFORMAT
NAME "png-test"
DRIVER "AGG/PNG" # GD driver is same (6.4 only)
MIMETYPE "image/png; mode=8bit"
IMAGEMODE PC256
FORMATOPTION "QUANTIZE_FORCE=on"
FORMATOPTION "QUANTIZE_COLORS=256"
EXTENSION "png"
# TRANSPARENT on or off makes little difference
END
MapServer 6.4 <https://greenwoodmap.com/mapserv64.png> is 90kB,
MapServer 7.6 <https://greenwoodmap.com/mapserv76.png> is 320kB.
Any suggestions as to how I can get my MapServer 7.6 image sizes
down closer to what I'm getting in MapServer 6.4?
Thanks,
Rich
