Why So Slow?

This plugin will allow you to easily remove bloat and turn off unused features, in order to streamline your website and reduce file requests.
It also includes the following additional functionality: 
– Include <a href="https://instant.page" rel="nofollow ugc">instant.page</a> library (v5.1.0) with settings 
– Add Server-Timing headers to enable better debugging 
– Use passive event listengers to improve scroll performance
This plugin is NOT a caching plugin, but should play well with any caching plugin you decide to use.


Perfect for my needs, as it easily allows me to disable features that I don't need, which streamlines my website and makes it load faster for my users.
