Performance Optimisation helps you speed up your site with cache management, JavaScript and CSS minification, image conversion (WebP and AVIF), lazy loading, preload hints, and a modern admin UI. It is designed to stay off by default for aggressive options (defer/delay JS, WooCommerce asset removal, server rules) so you can enable features gradually and test as you go—similar to how you would tune Autoptimize or a caching stack, but with a focused, dashboard-first workflow.
Why use this plugin?

<li>Safety-first UX: Advanced toggles show warnings; WooCommerce-related options remind you to test cart and checkout.</li>
<li>Core Web Vitals & PageSpeed: Lazy loading, minification, preconnect/prefetch, and image formats help real-world metrics—not just a higher score on a single lab test.</li>
