 * Hi,
 * I am having speed issues with Instagram feed…. When I test my site on pingdom
   tools, the report says that instagram is 2+ seconds to load which is slowing 
   my site down drastically. Is there any way to fix this?
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hey zatur90,
 * Currently the plugin loads after the rest of the page has rendered so that it
   has no effect on how quickly the rest of the page loads. So even though the feed
   is adding time to the overall load time of the page, the only thing it actually
   affects is the feed if that makes sense.
 * Let me know if you have more questions about this!
