    Hi,

    I’m managing a large woocommerce site and minifying generates gigabytes of cached minify’d files. Is there any way to minimise this?

  • Hello,

    You could consider implementing some of the following ideas:

    1. Only minify frequently used and critical assets

    2. Use a CDN

    3. Limit the number of plugins you have and only keep ones that are strictly necessary

    4. Try to combine asset files into a single file to reduce the overall number of files needed to be cached

    5. Use GZIP compression

    6. Have a schedule to clean up expired / unused cached files

    7. Monitor your servers disk space regularly to ensure your changes are having the desired impact.

    Best,

    Paul

    @garner2015 Some plugins use random numbers, like timestamp, as version number for stylesheets and scripts. Which was considered as an update by WP-Optmize. This is fixed.

    Please update to version 3.2.15, purge the cache and let us know if the problem still exists.
