Hi

I'm doing optimization tests with Google Pagespeed Insights, and I have 3 CSS resources in a test URL:


Pagespeed only alerts me to 1 resource by blocking the rendering of the page, why only one?

On other pages it detects more resources, example:


For what is this? Thanks in advance

"Blocking" means it's required to render the viewport (the visible portion of the top of the page)

Excuse me, my english is not very good

I mean: I don´t understand why google page speed only detect 1 CSS resource render blocking in this page:


Really, in this test page I have 3 CSS resources:
<link rel="stylesheet" id="bootstrap" href="css/bootstrap.min.css" type="text/css" media="all"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" id="fontawesome" href="css/font-awesome.min.css" type="text/css" media="all"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" id="styles1" href="css/styles1.css" type="text/css" media="all"/>

But google only say me: You have 1 CSS render blocking. Only 1, the first one (bootstrap.min.css

In other page, http://www.cdrbeauty.com/, there are 4 CSS resources:
<link href="http://www.cdrbeauty.com/wp-content/themes/conectamedia/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all">
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans+Condensed:300,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

And in this case, Google say me: You have 4 resources render blocking... Why in the first case only detect one resource? What about the other two?

The other 2 files only contain 3 media queries and a background change whereas the bootstrap is huge compared to them. It could be that a the download time is minute and does not trigger PSI, I might be completely wrong though.

Maybe they only show the first one. 

Maybe easier to work on inlining critical css instead of figuring out how PSI works?
