Hi,
Thank you for your feedback, and I apologize for the inconvenience.
To be honest, I have not personally worked with the JSpeed plugin before, and I was unable to find detailed or authoritative documentation from the developer regarding this specific behavior. The only relevant information I could find is here
Based on that, my understanding is that excluding a file may completely remove it from optimization processes, rather than simply excluding it from caching. However, I may be mistaken in this interpretation.
If that is the case, excluding jQuery in this manner could impact not only SP Page Builder but any extension that relies on jQuery, which might explain the issue you are experiencing.
Since this behavior appears to be controlled by the JSpeed plugin itself, I would recommend reaching out to the extension’s developer for clarification on how their exclusion feature is intended to work.
We appreciate your patience and understanding.
Best regards
