Firefox- Fast Pageload
Fast Pageload is a firefox addon developed by "Simon Frey" that uses preloading to make your browsing experience feel more fluent and the web overall faster.
The extension comes with two options that you may control on about: addons.
The first enables the "preloading of every visible link", and the second enables the "lazy loading of images in Firefox".
This is archived by just in time preloading pages you are quite likely to visit. Studies show, that when you hover over a link there is a 50% chance that you will click it.
Faster Pageload starts loading the page when you hover and thereby when you actually click (on average 400ms later) the page is already loaded to a big portion.
There is no technical effect, as the pages are still loaded normally but for your as human, it will feel faster, as the pages build up instantly after you clicked.
For further speed improvements we lazy load images on the web pages. So only the images you really see are loaded.
The lazy loading works as expected; it loads images only when they are in view and will pause the loading of images that are not in view. Once images are about to come into view, e.g. by scrolling, they will be loaded as well so that they display normally.
Download and install the 'Fast Pageload' extension from here.
