mod_pagespeed image compression with primefaces

Why does mod_pagespeed compress images rendered using <h:graphicImage> but not images using <img>.

For example: Doesn't get compressed:

<img src="/resources/img/logo.png" alt="Logo" height="50" width="230" />

This does get compressed:

<h:graphicImage library="img" name="logo.png" alt="Logo"  height="50" width="230" />
Solution
