Make fewer HTTP requests YSlow

@steve7 I’ve checked your website and the loading time is not bad (~ 3.6 seconds). One of the main things that I’d fix is the TTFB (time to the first byte) which is ~0.9 (ideally, it should be below 0.3s).

Regarding minification, in my tests, it works fine as the paths to the Asset CleanUp caching directory are clearly shown in the updated files and load fine. Now, it seems that no combine is taking place. Can you check again to make sure that: 1) It’s on, 2) You haven’t checked to enable it only for the administrator (for testing purposes). If the second option is enabled, the combine will take effect only for you, not for everyone (e.g. guest visitors like myself). If all is looking good, please send me your “System Info” file from “Tools” (plugin’s menu) so I’ll investigate this further.

PS: HTTP/2 is enabled for your website (check here: https://tools.keycdn.com/http2-test) and your website loads as fast. YSlow is outdated from this point of view. Moreover, you should defer JavaScript files (as many as you can without breaking the website) as “PageSpeed” recommends in the report. This will boost the page speed, even more, especially time to the first contentful paint. You can read more about HTTP/2 here: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/ways-improve-websites-pagespeed-using-http2/ (look for the “Don’t Combine Your CSS or JavaScript” section).

Hello Gabe,

Concerning combination, it’s on & admin mode is off.
About TTFB, should you suggest to contact my provider first?

Thank you for your guidance. Much appreciated.
