Your compression and caching are causing issues. Luckily you can solve both issues along with the lack of a cdn by using cloudflare's free plan.

Also, in the webpagetest results, click on the dropdown menu and select "Image Analysis". Following that brings you to a cloudinary page where they offer you compressed images.

One more thing, you should throw this into your .htaccess file also to help cover those items server side if you don't want to use a cdn to do it.

Sorry. I guess I should have started a new thread but this one had so much in common with my issues, I thought this would be a good place to start.
