    Hi,

    we have the problem that the 8theme Slider (Elementor Version) needs more than 3 seconds to stop spinning and display the content. The 2 slider images are compressed down to around 75k each and the size of around 550×580 so that can’t really be the issue because the rest of the frontpage, with all the product sliders, has already loaded “below the fold”.
    For the sake of testing we’ve switched through different VPS hosting providers but no matter what server caching method and caching plugins we’ve tried, the time the slider needs to loads stays almost every time the same.
    Each screenshot is a diff. VPS provider, http-server and caching plugins but almost same results with the slider delay on each setup

    Staging site URL and admin access posted.

    We would appreciate a helping hand here to get this huge delay out of the way.

    Best regards,
    JT

    Hello,

    You have a lot of product sliders on the home page and it increases the page loading time. I have enabled Lazy loading for the product elements and it improved page speed a lot https://gtmetrix.com/compare/WzhigKxG/QCoB7F07
