There's an experimental framework to support <link rel="prerender"> behind a preference implemented last year [1]. We ceased to work on it after realizing it's unlikely to benefit users as Chromium team indicated the usage rate is low and Chromium was going to remove it [2].
We'll clean up the code after 57 release since we're not going to ship this feature. The plan is to remove prerendering-specific code but keep GroupedSHistory [3], a feature to build cross-process session history without dropping bfcache. It was for prerendering but hopefully can also benefit some use cases of e10s-multi in the future. The bug to track the removal is at: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1383876 [1] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1315105 [2] https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/0nSxuuv9bBw [3] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=groupedshistory - samael _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
