WP-Rocket sucks site speed.

Adsense outsourced ads to 3rd party sites. This has resulted in drastic fall of loading speeds. Some sites are loading 20-30 secs on mobile. Check your site on Google pagespeed tools (https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/) and see if both your mobile and desktop performances are bad. If your desktop loads within 3-4 secs, but your mobile takes over 10 secs, then you need to optimize your site with AMP, optimized ads etc.

If both are loading slow, then the issue could be with your theme, plugins and cache. You need to check the stats and do what's best for your site.
i turend off the ads but still showing the same issue
pagespeed insight shows desktop-96(2.3s) mobile-66(4.8s) after removing the all ads but
but i can feel speed is same as it was

There are many contributors to slow speed. I think ads are biggest contributor in your case. You can further check with other sites for more info.
Check your site with https://www.webpagetest.org/
Check performance review to see if you have any issues.
Check domains to see if your site is loading any other domains. It's a good idea to add these domains in wp-rocket preloading.
Check details screen > waterfall to see which code/resources are delaying your page load.
You'll also get request details below to check content download time. This will give you an overall idea of what is delaying your page load.
 
Use WP fast cache it's much better than WP robot and it's free. It supports most css / minfy than others. Plus combining wp cash with stackpath (maxcdn) etc you will get better results.

Also make sure to use excludings css / java plus many happens with lazy loads/

You don't even need wp fast cache if you subed to CDN + Lazy load + Cache enbler...All are free :)

`peace man

WP rocket is trash, I have always used W3 Total Cache on my sites and it works great.

My site has a 96/100 page speed, its not 100 because I have some large "unoptimized" images.
 
Hi mates,
I've been using wp-rocket from 2month but yesterday I updated the plugin then my site speed drastically went down. (it used to load within 3s but now it's taking more than 10s)

I hope you guys can help me to fix it out..
Thanks, advance.

If you send me the full GTmetrix report, I'll have a look for free ;)

I checked the stats. He is having 2 secs TTFB. I advised him to choose a better host.

Do you think themes & plugins could cause such a high TTFB in any case?

If this is 2 seconds, it will be wise to choose a better host yes. :)

I ran a quick audit inside Chrome Inspector and this is what I got...
  • 19 requests
  • 430kb transferred
  • 4.77 Fully Loaded Time
  • 763ms TTFB
On GTMetrix I am getting these results...

On Web Page Test...

Results vary but not too much. So, we can be sure those are our stats for benchmarking and moving forward. It looks like some issues with your Cloudflare configuration and WP Rocket. Try uploading the previous version of WP Rocket and run a test to see what happens.

Now, going into the waterfall, these are the resources that are taking the most time to load are these...
257e11c7ac1976b3044a5e3ce6437dfd.png
The resource that is taking the most amount of time to load is coming from Cloudflare and it´s called rocket-loader.min.js

The termination "min" tells me that it has been already minify by WP Rocket but, still, it has a TTFF of 738.55ms.

I am also experiencing the same issue with a friend´s site in the sense all his images are below <50kb but still taking over 1sec to load.
 
Almost all your redirects are related to Adsense ads. I don't understand why you blame WP-rocket for your ads. I have it on a wordpress site on a shared hosting and it loads within 2 secs on both desktop & mobile. You should fix your ads to improve loading speed.
whould you tell me how to fix adsense ads to improve loading speed? thx
 
@Roger Marquez Thanks mate for your Quick look at my site. am no more using WP-rocket. Cloudflare causing more downtime issues. am working to resolve that.
@Misan Kumar - interested to see if tried wp fastest cache and its premium version. if so, how was the result?
I am using wp fastest cache result is better compare to previous(but not much exciting). btw thanks for your suggestion:). my TTFB time is a bit more so work for that.
 
It's true that wp rocket doesn't work well on some sites and on some it does, which is why I also prefer Hummingbird, it's free and works well just like any other plugin.
 
Stopped using rocket, was a good move.
yeah. i feel the same.
but the fact is it doesn't work well for every site.

i've not used Hummingbird. I should take a shot.

Yeah I think for some sites it must work great because you see people lauding it as being amazing. I could never see what they were talking about though, slow as shit.
