    We just setup a website with XStore and we are very excited about the possibilities. Only in way of performance we’re not pleased yet.

    Some files:
    style.css (xtore) – 618kb
    js_compose.min.css – 446kb
    js_composer_tta.min.css – 269kb
    bootstrap.min.css – 109kb

    Together with all the other css files we have a total of 1.8MB

    When I check out these files on one of your demos (https://www.8theme.com/demo/xstore/) I see totally different numbers:
    style.css (xtore) – 79.9kb
    js_compose.min.css – 43.3kb
    js_composer_tta.min.css – 15kb
    bootstrap.min.css – 18.4kb

    What is the best way to optimize this?

    Currently I have this website on WP-Rocket with minification on css and js enabled, but still not really oke.

    Hello,

    We are using W3 Total cache plugin.
    Theme supports all the plugin option, but if you use Minify mode it should be Manual. Minify settings http://prntscr.com/cq3b7v

    I already see, we forgot to enable gzip. Now it’s much better!
