Hi,

as this theme displays the cart quantity in the header section its necessary for the “get_refreshed_fragments” feature of Woocommerce to be enabled to ensure that quantity is accurate.

This usually results in the longest wait time component for serving and displaying a page – most noticeable on mobile devices which are now more important than desktop for ecommerce… further on from that this also is now a ranking factor on Google search.

I’m currently using WP Fastest Cache for my client’s site… I’m aware WP-Rocket now has a feature that disables “get_refreshed_fragments” for first time visits.. and this is the only caching plugin i’m aware of that does this.

I was wondering what’s recommended as a caching plugin for this theme where Woocommerce is being used?

I’ve optimized this site as much as I can and I don’t see the CPU hitting the limit on the server side (from viewing those logs in C-panel)… So I’m not sure what else I can do to improve performance.

FYI I’m getting PageSpeed Score
B (87%)
YSlow Score
C (71%)

on GTMetrix however Ubersuggest is giving me 9s for mobile devices which doesn’t seem very good.

(yes I’ve read the page speed article on this site)
