Website loading under 3 s!
I was trying to figure out how to improve my website loading time. at first it was 7 seconds, which is horrible. Then found that using a caching plugin will come handy. I use WP super Cache plugin and it was loading under 5s.
I also learned that you could also use CDN [Content Delivery Network] improving loading time. As it store the cache of the website among its servers. So one visitor will visit your website it will load much faster as the server is much closer to them.
But while doing a blog post bout a review on product I was comparing the product page of WA to the one I was reviewing. I found that Kyle just introduced SiteSpeed which dramatically Improve your website loading time but was still in beta.
I tried using it. But my website loading speed return to 7 seconds. Maybe a software glitch by when I tried switching the sitepeed on WA, it then worked and is loading under 3 second which is great. Thanks you WA community.

Hi Jhurreea,
When you turned the SiteSpeed on, did you remove the WP Super Cache plugin? because Kyle states in the blog post he wrote on it that all cache plugins need to be removed because they are not needed with SiteSpeed.
This is the latest Mobile 'loading time' tool I found, I wrote a blog post about it.

I'll leave you my results in the screenshot, it's 3 seconds:
Then you didn't read Carson's introduction to SiteSpeed where he states it has a built in Cache system and ALL Cache plugins need to go, they aren't needed. SiteSpeed is not a plugin which is great.
When you have 2 similar tools doing the same thing, they clash and mess everything up.
Here is the link for it SiteSpeed - Taking WordPress Website Speed into Unchartered Territory!
It wasn't training.
Just a new feature for us to have our websites to be faster which is great of Kyle and Carson to add this free!
There are some issue i need to let the WP Super Cache and the SiteSpeed in order to achieve website loading time at 3s. When I tried disabling the WP Super Cache and still let Site Speed on it will load under 5 s.
I tried it for a few time but still having the same result. I would like to know if there are something that I am doing wrong knowing that Site Speed is just a recently introduced to the WA. Still I am concerned but it is not working for me.
SiteSupport has helped out many members with this it's best to contact them but...remove the WP Cache plugin so they can investigate it properly.
Extra plugins mess up your site because they clash against each other. I know this because it happened to me and I had no idea. This is how I found out about plugins clashing with each other.
