Stripe JS blocking main thread

[niallolaoghaire]

Hi there,
When I test woo single product pages in Google PageSpeed I get the following diagnostic message on Mobile:
Third-party code blocked the main thread
Stripe
/inner.html(m.stripe.network)
…js/controller-1b843cf….js(js.stripe.com)
…js/elements-inner-payment-request-fce7d4b….js(js.stripe.com)
/v3/?ver=3.0(js.stripe.com)
…js/payment-request-inner-browser-140da14….js(js.stripe.com)

If I turn the plugin off my score on Mobile increases by 18.

Any help / advice appreciated.
Niall

Hi @niallolaoghaire.

As far as I know Stripe requires that the files are loaded on as many pages as possible in attempt to help combat fraud. Are you by any chance using the payment request buttons (Apple Pay/Google Pay) ? If not, we did provide a fix some time ago to not load Stripe JS on product pages when PRBs are disabled, and to not load Stripe JS on the cart page when PRBs are disabled.You can see that, along with the new filters here:

Cheers!
