 * Hi! Just a quick question!
    I wrote my critical CSS rules and put them in the
   Critical CSS Rules field [6 Tuning]. Should I leave Generate Critical CSS [5 
   Optimize] on or off ?? Do I still need to generate critical CSS automatically?
   What the best setting?

 * No, if you provide the Critical CSS in the **Tuning** tab, then you should not
   need to enable **Generate Critical CSS**.
 * Just be sure that you have **Load CSS Asynchronously** turned `ON` in the **Optimize
   tab. The sub-settings under that are all related to automatic generation and 
   can be turned `OFF`.**
