 * Hi Phil, thanks for the response and advice. I was using a cache plugin so not
   sure why it was still so slow. I am not a developer and basically all I could
   really understand was that the Age Gate was the first thing to load and it was
   taking a long time. I know there is more to it than that. I can see how there
   are a lot of JS and CSS being loaded, and from what I can tell some were coming
   from the caching plugin itself. We are using WP Fastest Cache Premium, and it
   has all sorts of settings we can try to make caching more efficient.
 * I did try a different age gate plugin (WordPress Responsive Age Verification)
   and it was faster to load by a second or so, but also it is simpler and has no
   logo image.
 * I will share this with my developer who is helping, and we’ll look into the images
   and the Merge + Minify + Refresh plugin you suggested. Thank you.

 * Why do you need age gate to work on pages that user could not get to without 
   already having been presented with age gate? Is this a new rule for cannabis 
   products? I ask since I have clients that sell cannabis online. I have not seen
   this be an issue before. I work in USA, California so maybe our rules our different.
