Hello, I need some advice. I am using a child theme. Would it be better to not use a child theme and use the Simple CSS plugin for my CSS Styling? Any speed enhancements by not using a child theme?
Style sheets in the child theme require an additional Server Request which does have an impact on performance. So for a small amount of CSS, eg. under 500 lines it is better to use Simple CSS. If you have a much greater amount of CSS then its better in the child theme.
