From “Oh My!” to “Oh No!”

UPDATE:
I apparently spoke too soon. As it turns out the performance boost I thought was the result of this plugin seems to have been from uninstalling another plugin which presumably allowed WP Super Cache to work more efficiently. This plugin was, as it turns out, not even “turned on” yet. I assumed it was “on” by default originally. once I turned it on, however, it did the same thing that the previous two plugins (mentioned below) did to a couple of parallax images on the site. Like the previous 2 lazy load plugins, when I deactivated it, the images were corrected and page stopped stuttering as I scrolled down the page. Therefore, I have to change my previous 5 star rating to a more realistic 1 star since the plugin did more harm than good.

Original Review:
I don’t know what this plugin does that’s different from similar plugins, but I tried a couple, skipped over a number of others (which hadn’t been updated in a long time) and finally tried this one (almost ready to give up on the whole concept of a lazy page loader). The couple I tried not only didn’t seem to do anything to speed up my site, but goofed up some images/graphics on my site. Once I tried this one (Rocket Lazy Load), however, my site not only worked correctly but, as a one page parallax, it actually (finally) got pretty peppy! I also have WP Super Cache installed which didn’t seem to do much either. Again, I have no idea what makes this work, but on my site anyway (which is still being developed), it works and has made a huge difference. I was beginning to give up hope on having a quick site, but this has given me reason to hope that by the time I get the site completed, it may actually be user-friendly…we’ll see how it goes as I move forward.
