I noticed CMSMS sets two cookies which can't seems to be 'unset' in case a visitor doesn't accept cookies from a site, besides this I noticed in GTMetrix placing the cookies is quit time consuming https://gtmetrix.com/reports/develop.ui ... u/HelK37VD
Cookie 'CMSSESSIDe2f2d5abe1c8=f0c295d34598698a4846570d6f9c4b1b' takes 526bytes and 1.43sec

Are these cookies needed to run a site? If not, can these be unset? I'm also curious why it takes over a second to set these cookies.

CMSMS sets 1 session cookie per site, that stores only the session id. not any private data.

It is required, and cannot be disabled.

The fact that it claims to take 1.5 seconds must be an issue with either your network, client or host..... because it takes nowhere near that long for me.

Thanks.

What I'm trying to understand, is why there are in that case two cookies set? As you can see in the GTMetrix link one is set on the toplevel of the site and one for the article.
he fact that it claims to take 1.5 seconds must be an issue with either your network, client or host.....
Pretty hard to find out what is causing the delay. Any tips?
