[Resolved] Performance degraded after the updates

[Laurentiu]

I have a website that’s using Generate Press and I optimized it 1 year ago, it had very good scores in Lighthouse.
I just checked it and I see the performance has degraded.
I noticed the biggest saving could come from reducing the unused javascript, and the biggest files seem to be some related to WordPress, not a plugin.
The website is here. Do you have any recommendations on what I can do to increase the score on Lighthouse?

Hi Laurentiu,

You can try the recommendations here by WP Rocket: https://wp-rocket.me/google-core-web-vitals-wordpress/remove-unused-javascript/#section-4:~:text=the%20unused%20JavaScript.-,How%20to%20Remove%20or%20Reduce%20Unused%20JS%20Files%20on%20WordPress%3A%20Two%20Methods,-You%20can%20remove

You may also try using a CDN.

Thank you.
I managed to solve it by enabling Delay Javascript execution and removing the following line: (?:/wp-content/|/wp-includes/)(.*) from the Excluded field.

I see. Glad you resolved the issue! You’re welcome Laurentiu!
