 * Hello – I have found that I have a bit more speed than I had with Autopimize 
   thanks, but it seems to waver (an F today) – [home page load is especially inconsistent
   on mobile] – but I wondered if you can advise on ‘Avoid long main-thread asks’
   a 7.9 sec for Phastpress and my home page link it gives is [https://www.fuz.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/phastpress/phast.php/c2VydmljZT1zY3JpcHRzJnNyYz1odHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy5mdXouY28udWslMkZ3cC1pbmNsdWRlcyUyRmpzJTJGd3AtZW1vamktcmVsZWFzZS5taW4uanMlM0Z2ZXIlM0QwZmQxNzA0MDlhZGYxOTQ3ZThkNTE1NjlhYzYxZjliYyZjYWNoZU1hcmtlcj0yMjM3OTY.q.js](https://www.fuz.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/phastpress/phast.php/c2VydmljZT1zY3JpcHRzJnNyYz1odHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy5mdXouY28udWslMkZ3cC1pbmNsdWRlcyUyRmpzJTJGd3AtZW1vamktcmVsZWFzZS5taW4uanMlM0Z2ZXIlM0QwZmQxNzA0MDlhZGYxOTQ3ZThkNTE1NjlhYzYxZjliYyZjYWNoZU1hcmtlcj0yMjM3OTY.q.js)
 * I then tested this a little while later and got a D & didn’t get the same message?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fgtmetrix-query%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@angiefuz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/angiefuz/),
 * I’m assuming you’re testing with GTmetrix?
 * Main thread works means your page contains a lot of scripts. Because of PhastPress’
   script optimization, they all seem to ‘come from’ PhastPress, but PhastPress 
   itself executes only the scripts that are already on your page. In order to get
   rid of this, you’ll have to remove as many JavaScripts from your page as possible.
   [Asset CleanUp](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-asset-clean-up/) can help with
   this.
 * If you test with PhastPress disabled (by adding `?phast=-phast` to the URL) you’ll
   see the same message:

 * Anyway, I would **(1)** recommend enabling HTTP/2 (ask your hosting provider 
   about this) and **(2)** reducing the amount of custom fonts on your site because
   each font slows down your page load. Try to use just one custom font, if any,
   instead of these 6:

 * PS: It looks like the “Liberation Sans” font is not loaded by your site, but 
   local on my machine. So that leaves 5. These are the network requests added by
   external fonts:

 * Hi Albert
 * It should only be using Titillium, the others may be buried in plugins (there
   are two, that are called monarch & bloom). I will ask about http2 though – thanks
