<p>After loading the page, the plugin starts to follow the user’s screen. And as soon as a link appears on the screen within your site – the browser executes the request and downloads it. Now that the user clicks on the link, the browser will instantly display a new cache page. Thus, User Experience will indicate that your site is loading instantly.</p>
<h3>How it work</h3>
<p>The plugin uses the built-in browser features to predict user behavior for preloading the tourniquet. See <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_prefetching" title="Link prefetching" rel="nofollow ugc">this</a></p>
<h3>API</h3>
<p>The plugin also registers a global feature that you can use to preload any URL:</p>
<pre><code>window.prefetch('https://example.com/custom/page')
</code></pre>

<p>Instant Articles for WordPress will let you configure DNS prefetching URLs and will automatically prerender the last 2 posts on the front page, plus next and previous posts when viewing a single post. You also have the option to pre-render sticky posts.</p>
<p>It is not recommended to use more than 4-5 URLs for DNS prefetching.</p>
<p>Enabling page prerendering will likely increase server and client (browsers) load.</p>
<p>Enabling subresources will let you specify URL’s to hint the web browser for high priority files, likes .JS or .CSS, for fetching these even before they appear in the HTML document.</p>
