<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>
