And .. I think that this prefetch function is only workable as
intended with a slow dialup type connection. My main website with
over 800 pages is quickly accessed to any page from any page quite
quickly. I don't really think I could tell the difference
with/without prefetch.
I like to watch videos online, and even with a broadband connection
(about 25 MB/min or 1500 kBps), they can sometimes take awhile to load
(probably due to slow/busy servers). For example, if my 36-minute
program is broken into three 12-minute chunks, I routinely open three
tabs, and launch all three chunks, then quickly pause the second and
third ones, allowing them to load without playing. I view the first one,
and by the time I'm done, the second is ready to go. Automatic
prefetching could come in handy here, especially since the website links
the second and third chunks to the first and I have bandwidth to burn.
