    Hi
    i spend a lot of time into getting good speed values and had values of 89 / 94 in gtmetrix (incl. solved all issues like gzip and others)
    After updating the values are VERY BAD.
    https://gtmetrix.com/reports/marcusjeroch.de/bdGaimn7

    Once again for better understanding
    Before Update:
    gzip was ok
    After Update:
    gzip has issues.
    Although the serversettings are OK:
    https://checkgzipcompression.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmarcusjeroch.de

    Before Update::
    Leverage Browser caching = no issues
    After Update:
    Leverage Browser caching = has issues

    Before Update::
    Defer Javascript = no issues
    After Update:
    Defer Javascript = has issues

    All these issues i solved some month ago via htaccess or plugins.
    All these plugins / htaccessrules are still there.
    The ONLY thing changed were updating WP & Enfold

    SO WHY did my speed values went down the gutter??
    HOW to FIX that?

    Hey MarcusJeroch,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    Looks like the script is from a third party video player plugin. Did you install a new plugin? Did you enable the theme’s Enfold > Performance > File Compression settings? You may need to toggle it again after the update.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    1: I did nothing except updating
    2: The fact that gzip is issued althought gzip is active has nothing to do with any thirdpartyscripts. This parameter had an A grade before updating – now it has an F grade.
    3: The same with defer javascript & levering browser cache
    4: i toggled everything in Enfold > Performance and cleared the cache but still it has the same very bad values

    Hi,

    Do you have a staging site that is using an older version of the theme? This article should help:

    No – i dont.

    Please dont tell me not to bother.
    Specially not if all values were “Grade A” before the update and are “Grade F” after.

    I shouldnt bother about having probably the lowest value ever measured?
    https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmarcusjeroch.de%2F

    and this tool does say the same
    https://tools.pingdom.com/?_ga=2.147351167.994274777.1547577822-1788660672.1547577822#5a14b4f7c3800000
    For example it says that there is no compression although there is

    and one more:
    I ALREADY DID all this work described in the article
    It took me half a working day to finetune.
    AFTER that i HAD these good values.
    Directly AFTER THE UPDATE the values went down the gutter.

    Did you realize the problem now?
    And here is one more problem:
    Whatever i try – (even your hints) – i cant get better values.

    Hi,

    Alright. The site’s score might have changed because that test is now using a different testing tool (https://searchengineland.com/google-pagespeeds-insights-tool-gets-a-major-update-with-more-data-from-lighthouse-307968). Please look at the suggested optimizations provided by the reports. For example, it says that you have to “Defer offscreen images”. In the list, you can see images that can be optimized and one of them is a gif image (gefaellt.gif). That image alone is 867KB, which is far from an optimized image. Yes, it is animated, but if you really want to optimize the page, you should remove it or lower its quality a bit more. Another suggestion is that you should “Use video formats for animated content” and again, it points to the gefaellt.gif image. Follow those suggestions and you should be able to increase the page speed.

    Best regards,
    Ismael
