 * Hi!
    Thanks for the plugin I’ve just intalled it and it seems to be the best 
   solution to optimize the website. However I’ve still the following problem (after
   running the speed google test): -minimze css ([https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.4/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css?ver=3.4.1](https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.4/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css?ver=3.4.1))-
   chace the resourse (external link.. but I think there is no way to tune it) Can
   you help me please? Thank!

 * And just the last question: autoptimize can’t change “reduce server response 
   time”, right? That is, that problem is only related to the hosting service provider
   settings/resources?
 * Please, if you have any advice on how to face external css / js links problem,
   let me know 🙂 (i.e. way to identify the code that call external link, way to
   report external link in internal resources..)
 * Thanks!!!

 * well yes and no … when configured incorrectly, AO could increase (initial) server
   response time, cfr. [http://blog.futtta.be/2017/01/18/how-to-make-autoptimize-even-faster/](http://blog.futtta.be/2017/01/18/how-to-make-autoptimize-even-faster/)
 * Having a page cache (plugin) comes highly recommended and will help you both 
   lessen problems with CSS/ JS complexity and hosting service provider limitations.

 * well, the jquery-ui.css one is -if I’m not mistaking- introduced by woocommerce
   but I don’t know why/ where it is used (not a WC-specialist I’m afraid).
