WordPress.com CDN – Remove query strings from static resources

There is not, those query strings are necessary for the operation of Jetpack features, especially Photon, and in many ways they actually *decrease* load time.

For example, on those images, ?resize=726 means that Photon is loading a version of the image that’s only 726 pixels wide (because that’s all that’s needed to fit the display) rather than the huge original image.

In this particular instance, GTMetrix is trying to help, but because it doesn’t know the context of usage, its recommendation is actually a not helpful. 🙂
