So we have an opencart store with +/- 150 products.
It's opencart 2.3.x and using Journal theme for Opencart 2.

We want to improve pageloads, homepage, productpages, checkout, etc.
Already running it on a VPS, but it seems as if it doesn't make such a big difference.
I've checked the network load. DOM content loaded in approx 5 seconds on the homepage.
Page size 3,5mb.

What tips options do you guys know about?

Lol very funny guys. Altho I kind of agree, it's the best way forward but wanted to see about other tips, which are still welcome.

Lol okay, when we have budget enough to rebuild our theme, I will remove journal. But for now it was the best cost efficient option.

We're going to try nitropack plugin. Anyone experience with that?
