Although the screenshot above says you can use 0 or blank, this add-on requires you to use a positive value for the Maximum attachment image dimensions settings. I suggest using 1600 x 1600.
Admin control panel -> Setup -> Options -> Attachments -> Maximum attachment image dimensions
Question and Answers:
Q: Are attachments reused, meaning if the same attachment is located in several posts does each one use up disk space?

Q: Does this add-on convert hot linked images in other areas besides posts?
A: No.
Q: Does Convert image add-on support $config['http']['proxy'] to hide my IP address?
A: Yes.
