iCloud photo vs photo storage usage


hi,
thought had sound knowledge of how icloud photo meant work. after uploading photo library, have 2 options: keep high res photos on phone (i.e. taking full space) or thumbnails , save gb opn phone.

camera roll 5.7 gb before activating icloud beta option. had no sync photos mac. activated , morning finished uploading 1200 photos , videos.

however, usage shows 5.8 gb photos? made sure "optimise storage" option selected, should have low res thumbnails , not full photos on device, why taking more space before activating cloud option?

i'm confused!
 

my photo stream off?
