Did you try to click the item in GTmetrix to view details? As you can see, all this is related to the custom script you added (http://s10.histats.com/js15_as.js) and has nothing to do with X3. I can't solve issues with custom 3rd party scripts you are adding ... likely they use redirects as part of how their system works.


In GTmetrix, you can click each element in the list to review the requests that are penalizing the score. Most penalizations are from non-X3 resources.

I wouldn't sweat too much about getting your scores perfect at GTmetrix though, as much of the output is misleading. The whole point of "performance", is to get the website to display "as fast as possible" to your visitors. The STATS module you are using, loads "asynchronously" in the background, and does not affect the website for the visitor. What does it matter if it triggers redirects as part of it's internal mechanism? It would be more of an issue if you had "redirects" to resources that are actually USED as part of the page that is displayed to the visitor.
