hi,

gzip in joomla html output , that's it, you're using php envoke compression on content (using joomla system).

your js, css, , etc. uncompressed , not set ideally based on recommended settings. if you're on shared hosting cannot install mod_gzip or mod_deflate , enable them (for apache) need third party extension (but warning, break files when trying combine them). extension php based compression , cause cpu overhead (also can combine files reduce http requests, have play feature work).

you need minify, compress, , reduce overall http requests. set cache time these files far in future stay on clients machine longer. strip etags.

look setting .htaccess file lot of things can on hosting optimize score , give better performance. lot of apache modules installed default can make use of them (but provider doesn't set stuff default).

check out cloudflare, have free service compress of these file types , cdn give benefits , improve score too. built in threat control awesome too!

watch out many extensions, execute php code , include many css, js, , images , slow down.
