# render blocking objects (minify header)

 * I noticed that my bounce percentage was pretty high so I did a page speed test
   and my score was low. Google indicates some reasons for the low speed. One of
   them is that some resources are blocking the initial render of the page:

 * I already enabled minify for html, javascript and css. Is there anything I can
   do to eliminate render blocking resources?

 * I’m experiencing the same thing “remove unused javascript” ( 8 instances)
    “Eliminate
   render blocking resources” ( 7 instances) “Remove unused css” (2 instances)
 * Instances are all WPO minify files ‘minify’ files
 * C’mon fellas what gives? This supposed to optimize the websites not add bloat!!

 * Hi there,
 * If you website supports http/2, You can disable merging of CSS and JS (Keep minification
   enabled).
 * Then to go further, you can try enabling “Defer all the JavaScript files”. But
   be warned that this can cause JavaScript errors, so when doing this, you need
   to check that everything still works as expected.

 * [@art137](https://wordpress.org/support/users/art137/) WP-Optimize **doesn’t 
   add anything**. If there is bloat, it comes from the theme and plugins that add
   scripts and styles to the front end. WP-Optimize merges them and minifies those,
   which is why the flagged resources appear to be from it.

 * Thanks for being quick on the draw. I got to looking at the files a little closer
   and you’re right They are render-blocking because of the scripts that are minified
   so I apologize for the “bloat” accusation.
 * I did try the “Defer All” and my “post slider” broke and had to change that setting
   back and it was fine after that. The page builder I am using has been a real 
   problem to optimize and whatever I try to use something will always break it.
