if you want the site to be fast, don't render it with javascript and take a look at the google lighthouse check for things to improve:

eat healthy as in: only once a day and only six days a week. only water for drinking and only fresh stuff to eat, no meat, no eggs, nothing cooked, nothing baked, nothing fried, nothing grilled, nothing processed, no sugar and no salt.
Being a major shift from the good life one should start it with a 7 day water fast. (do I have to say "ask your doctor before embarking"? done)

One could eat healthy instead of course but hey, the good life.
