It is nice to have the page appear instantly if you wanted exactly what was preloaded, but the overhead this adds in both network and CPU is kind of worrying.
- jfoster 15y agoGood point about battery life. Perhaps the Chrome team should consider turning this on/off depending on the system state. It's the type of feature that I think most users would want on when they are at plugged in at home using a virtually unlimited internet connection. On the other hand, when using battery power and a 3g or tethered internet connection, it probably isn't so desirable.
