    Just wanna say tnx for developing such a wonderful plugin. I really appreciate it. Before using it, i tried lazy load & jquery image lazy loading plugin. Lazy Load didn't work for me with W3 Total Cash and though jquery image lazy loading worked fine with W3TC but after checking my blog with google page speed checker, I found it slows my page speed almost 2%. So I decided to check your plugin and it worked like a charm for me.

    Thank you for your feedback – I'm happy that the plugin works well for you.

    You are totally right about the jquery image lazy loading plugin – it actually makes your site slower. This is isn't an issue just with that particular plugin, but rather all Javascript-only lazy loading plugins. What happens is that first the browser downloads the original image, then replace it with a placeholder and then replaces the placeholder with the original again. This gains nothing, just adds overhead.

    That's why you need a HTML rewriting plugin like BJ Lazy Load or Lazy Load (which actually looked very good the last time I had a look at it).
