Oliver is correct.
The Page Cache will never be able to make *leaving a page* any
faster. But it can make *returning* to a page instantaneous.
This is a Good Thing™
I think we're all agreeing with each other. At least, this is what
I was trying to agree with when I said "Yes, that's completely
accurate".
At some point when I wasn't paying close attention, this thread
started to talk about two different things that both happened to be
related to unload handlers.
I think:
1 - We all agree that the Page Cache is good
2 - We all agree that when a page has XHR in its unload handler and
spins a busy loop, that makes leaving the page slower.
3 - We all agree that moving that XHR from unload to pagehide would
not make leaving the page any faster.
I think https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29193 is completely
orthogonal to the issue of improving what types of pages can go into
the Page Cache.
