 * Hello,
 * I have noticed that the plugin affects Google Page Speed and GTMetrix Score as
   well.
    When I disable it, I instantly get better score. It takes an additional
   2-3 seconds to load the homepage when using the plugin.
 * Is there maybe any way to improve that?
 * Thank you

 * Hi [@cyshield](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cyshield/)
 * Is there any way for me to test this? Can you perform an analysis with and withour
   our plugin and link them here? Also make sure to analyze twice. If you disable
   the plugin, it could be that your caching or other plugins perform a one-time
   task on the first page load. This can slow things down but the second page load
   should be faster.
