Comment #3 on issue 482 by simon.bohlin: DNS prefetching causes NetBIOS queries for "NEW-TAB" on startup http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=482
(12 months later) Where in WebKit is this work going on? A relevant discussion at https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20690 has suggestions of calling some DNSprefetch() only for links starting with http:// and https:// (and perhaps ftp://) since links without protocol in front must be on the same domain. To save on IPC calls, a local buffer (inside WebCore) is suggested. To save prefetching in case the browser process uses several WebCore processes, a second buffer outside WebCore is suggested. Actually according to webkit bug 20690 it seems webkit itself would not prefetch for NEW-TAB. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
