Performance Lab
The Performance Lab plugin is a collection of features focused on enhancing the performance of your site, most of which should eventually be merged into WordPress core. The plugin facilitates the discovery and activation of the individual performance feature plugins which the performance team is developing. In this way you can test the features to get their benefits before they become available in WordPress core. You can also play an important role by providing feedback to further improve the solutions.
As funcionalidades que estão atualmente em destaque neste plugin são:
- Embed Optimizer
- Enhanced Responsive Images
- Image Placeholders
- Image Prioritizer
- Instant Back/Forward
- Modern Image Formats
- Optimization Detective (dependência para Embed Optimizer e Image Prioritizer)
- Performant Translations
- Speculative Loading
- View Transitions (experimental)
- Web Worker Offloading (experimental)
Esses plugins também podem ser instalados individualmente, sem a necessidade da instalação do Performance Lab. Entretanto, ter o plugin Performance Lab instalado permite a você descobrir novos recursos de desempenho à medida que são desenvolvidos.
