    Hi,

    I installed the Native Lazyload plugin and immediately my web pages were opening faster.

    However when I re-ran the PageSpeeds insight reports (https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights), the Performance score has actually dropped.

    Not only this but the tool is still suggesting I install a Lazyload plugin.

    Should I simply wait for a while before retesting?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi, there might be multiple reasons for this. First of all, I’m not entirely sure how PSI assesses whether lazy-loading is available or not, and whether it checks for the loading attribute yet, since that is still rather new.

    Regarding the score having dropped, this may be because of the fallback script that is being loaded for browsers that do not yet support the loading attribute.

    I’ll reach out to the folks from PSI to get more information on this, but for now I’d say don’t worry too much about this. You know you have a lazy-loading plugin, and I’m happy to hear that it made your site faster. 🙂
