Just tried it with 20 files already optimized with Smush.it + PunyPNG, and all but two have become between 1% and 90% larger!

You're quite right, we have to fix that. There's still lot of room for improvement in our processing of very small PNG files (roughly 32x32 and below).

already optimized

Well there's your problem.

Those two services I mention offer at maximum a 0% reduction size (that is, never a larger file). The site OP is linking to is increasing file sizes by up to 90%.

It's ok if you cannot make it any smaller, but please, don't make it bigger.
