 * Weird, I was about to write I could not reproduce, but at the 5th test indeed
   the problem appeared. I reloaded the homepage 10 times in the browser (with an
   empty cache), but was not able to reproduce it there, so it looks like a fluke
   at Pagespeed’s side? What you could do -and it would further improve performance-
   is look into “remove render-blocking CSS”, adding “above the fold CSS” which 
   will be inlined in the HTML and which will render the page until the full CSS-
   file loads? There’s more info in [the AO FAQ](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/faq),
   look for “inline & defer CSS”.
 * hope this helps,
    frank

 * Hi Frank,
 * Sorry i was caught up with work and forget to reply on this.
 * The issue is apparently with your plugin. I don’t have this when i let the css
   files uncombined, or when i tried W3 total cache css combine option.
 * Hope that helps.

 * and have you been able to reproduce the problem as a visitor to the site, i.e.
   in a browser instead of with pagespeed insights?

 * Super-weird, afraid the only thing I can do is propose the “critical CSS” workaround(
   which also has performance advantages, yay) .. as (as far as I know) there’s 
   no way to debug why Pagespeed Insight might occasionally not load the CSS.

 * Update on this.
 * After a theme update. The issue was gone. So it was apparently a compatiblity
   issue with the theme. Blocksy theme.

 * good to know wp-anis, have you reached out to blocksy developers about this (
   undoubtedly hard to troubleshoot) issue?
