There seems to be an issue with the size of the original image grows for example: when I upload an image to the CMS area it starts out at 222kb and I check the download size in the browsers "Network" tab on Developer tools. Slightly higher or lower here for desktop. But then I simulate a mobile device such as tablet or responsive and the size via Network tab grows from the 222 to 765kb. I have tried adjusting the format/Configure Responsive Image Styles in many ways but the image seems to grow no matter what. Any insight into a possible solution would be helpful

Since focal point basically uses the image effect functions that come with drupal core to actually generate the image derivitives I suspect that this has more to do with your image manipulation library. Most people use imagemagik or gdlib .... I would check what you are using on your server and see how its configured.

As a test, change one of your image styles that uses the focal_point scale and crop effect to use the standard scale and crop effect and see if you see the same result with the test image you are using (make sure to upload it again as though its a brand new image). I suspect that you will see the identical behavior. If I'm right then this is definitly not a focal point issue and it is almost certainly having to do with your gdlib configuration

In any case, please report back so that the next person that has this question can follow along
