I tried it with the Divi theme and it actually made the site slower.

Made the site instantly faster. Too bad it doesn’t also optimize css ‘above the fold’, that would be great.

Does exactly what it is supposed to and nothing more. Very, very lean!

I had 3 cases of “rendering blocking javascript” installed this, cleared my cache, and all 3 errors on Google Page Speed test were fixed! Thanks for saving me some time!
