Lazy load being applied to top background image despite being disabled

Theme preset: Dentist PRO

The background image at the top of the homepage takes around two seconds to load, which makes me think lazy load or some other script is being applied to it–despite lazy load being disabled in the theme settings. It’s not a huge image file either (under 500 kb), so I’m not sure what’s causing the delay. All other images on the site are loading without issue, including much larger image files.

To be specific, a gradient background color loads first and then the background image (gold overlapping concentric circles) over it. I tried deleting the background color settings, but the theme continued to load a gradient first in its preset colors (blue and green).

Is there any way to fix this?
I think most visitors to the site probably scroll down before the background image even loads.

Hi,
This effect is because the background image is loaded using css https://i.imgur.com/WOzycXv.png and this will load slow, when the image is set in an image element that is using html code like “Single image”, then this will be load faster because, fist it is load all the html and only after that the css.
Thank you!
