Does swfmill have any options for image compression?

I thought not, but a colleague saw this line from the release page on
0.2.6 that says: minimum compression buffer size for importing PNGs   
and thought that might me you could?

I see this post from Mark in 2005:

You mean for JPGs?
AFAIK, swfmill doesn't re-encode images, so they're included the way
they are.

I searched src code some and my conclusion is still that it doesn't.
Just looking for confirmation?

If not, does anyone have any recommendations on tools (command line) or
approaches to getting pngs compressed as small as possible to use in a
swfmill import ?   

I've played with optipng but it only saves me about 3-12% on size. (For
instance, a given png that is 38,141 bytes goes down to 36,795).  But if
someone puts that same 38,141 png in an fla and using the Flash IDE
publishes with the default 80% compression on, the whole swf with the
png ends up only about 8,000 bytes.  Anyone know how they are
compressing it?

Thanks,
