Enable and configure the Asset Optimizer
Enable the Optimizer globally for entire Sitecore instance or locally for selected tenants.
The Asset Optimizer is a module that optimizes CSS styles and JS scripts. When it is enabled in a production environment, the Asset Optimizer improves overall site performance by reducing the amount of data that needs to be transferred. Sitecore administrators can enable this module either globally for the entire Sitecore instance or locally for selected tenants.
Note
It is best practice to disable the Asset Optimizer in development environments and to enable it in production environments.
