 * Hi, I’m using the Avada theme. Great theme design but support is a challenge.
   I just added short-code to my home page that displays recent posts. Those posts
   are all video files using the following embed code:
 * <iframe width=”640″ height=”360″ src=”[http://www.youtube.com/embed/e.g?feature=player_detailpage&#8221](http://www.youtube.com/embed/e.g?feature=player_detailpage&#8221);
   frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>
 * I’ve noticed a huge performance hit to my site. Seems like about 2 extra seconds
   to load per video. Any thoughts on how to improve performance? I have CDM deployed…
   guess that doesn’t really matter since the videos are really stored elsewhere.
 * Even a workaround where the videos load after the header content and slider would
   help.
 * Really appreciate the help!
