There is an option called lossless rotation. What does it mean and what does it really do? How is it different from the image/rorate option? When I tried it, it shrink the file size by 70%. What is not lost during the transformation?

AFAIK that same "optimising and cleaning" process is applied automatically after the lossless rotations have been completed, so any small removal or addition of pixels caused by the rotation is usually buried.
