Hey @sanderrrrr,
Everything is loaded async, so the actual performance impact should be negligible, but of course it doesn’t look good in testing tools.
I suggest you send an e-mail to WebwinkelKeur customer support (the plugin itself just loads the official WebwinkelKeur sidebar) and ask about this. That will let them know more people care about this, and it might get improved sooner.

It is loaded async, but all files are still loaded on first view.
So whether you click somewhere or not, all files are loaded, including double images and irrelevant scripts.
Also a weird item; if you open google developer tool and scroll all the way down. The foldable Webwinkelkeur snippet actually shows at the footer. I suppose all that is loaded but hided. Why load these things if not needed?
Hi @sanderrrrr,
I agree with you. I will discuss your complaint with WebwinkelKeur and see if we can address this in the near future.

Thanks Albert, let me know if I can help with anything.

Hi Albert,
unfortunately have not heard since.I looked into this once again.
Running some test in GTmetrix.
Simply disabling this plugin will decrease the number of requests by 16 (!).
Page loading time decreased by a full 0.5-0.8 seconds.
Page speed ranking increased with 3% and yslow by another 4%.
Look at the time waterfall https://prnt.sc/spykv8.
That’s actually 700 ms + 800 ms + 140 ms = 1.5 second.
Those numbers are really unheard of for any plugin, let alone a relative simple plugin. I have decided to disable this plugin for now and look for alternatives. Hopefully a better version of this plugin will appear in the near future.
