With that file size, I'm guessing you're using a big picture without transparency and with many colors, which is the opposite of the usual use case of optimizing PNGs.

With significantly smaller file sizes, it could be more challenging to see timing differences. Also, this image is one that someone used the last time OxiPNG was discussed, which seemed relevant to me.

Then the ideal test is having a bunch of icons with transparency, merged in a single image.
