I created an large slider with lots of layers. Unfortunately each layer appears on each device size, but always with different settings, so i had to use each layer three times - one for each device size.
This will slow down the start of the slider (pictures are compressed...).
My question is: Is there a difference of speed at start, when i reorder the layer?
Currently the layers are sorted by device size, that means:

The order of the layers shouldn't have any effect on this.
However LayerSlider offers multiple options (Advanced tab) that you can utilize to increase performance. The conditional script loading option will only load the scripts when they are needed. The include scripts in the footer option helps with eliminating the render-blocking scripts. The slider markup caching option spares server resources and lowers database connections. Please also note that the caching is not present for logged in admins, so you might not see the difference on the back-end.
Hi,
I created an large slider with lots of layers. Unfortunately each layer appears on each device size, but always with different settings, so i had to use each layer three times - one for each device size.

My question is: Is there a difference of speed at start, when i reorder the layer?
Currently the layers are sorted by device size, that means:
smallsize-layer-1, smallsize-layer-2, smallsize-layer-3, ........ smallsize-layer-50,
mediumsize-layer--1, mediumsize-layer--2, mediumsize-layer--3, ..........mediumsize-layer--50,
largesize-layer--1, largesize-layer--2, largesize-layer--3, ........ largesize-layer--50,
OR IS THIS ORDERING BY APPEARENCE FASTER:
smallsize-layer-1, mediumsize-layer--1, largesize-layer--1, smallsize-layer-2, mediumsize-layer--2, largesize-layer--2, ....... smallsize-layer-50, mediumsize-layer--50, largesize-layer--50,
Hope I could explain my problem.
Best regards, Christian

Great! Works perfect now.
