FireLoad Autor: Sean

FireLoad is a speculative page-warming extension for Firefox. It watches for strong navigation signals such as hovering, focusing, middle-clicking, right-clicking, and opening links in new tabs or windows, then uses browser-native prefetching to warm likely next pages ahead of time.

Choose between three modes:

Efficiency keeps preloading conservative with tight resource limits.

Balanced uses a practical mix of hover, visible-link, and intent-based prediction.

Blazing Fast uses more aggressive preloading for the fastest perceived navigation.

FireLoad uses native browser hints such as DNS prefetch, preconnect, and document prefetch. It does not collect analytics, send telemetry, or transmit data to a FireLoad service. Settings are stored locally in Firefox.

To reduce unwanted requests, FireLoad skips sensitive URLs such as checkout, payment, logout, delete, token, session, and unsubscribe paths. It also respects Save-Data and slow-network signals by default.
