Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

FasterWeb uses just-in-time preloading, which preloads a page right before you click on it. In addition, FasterWeb enriches search results by adding the smart search widget beside the search results.

The FasterWeb works best on pages on the same sites. Pages to external sites are still faster but more is needed to be noticeable.

How it works: Before clicking a link, hover your mouse over it. When you have hovered for 65 milliseconds, there is one chance out of two that you will click, so Faster Web starts preloading at this moment, leaving on average over 300 ms for the page to preload.

Pages that trigger an action (such as logging out or deleting something) are excluded. (FasterWeb won’t preload pages with a “?” in their URL.)

FasterWeb — previously called FasterChrome — is based on instant.page, a library that you can add to your site in just one minute to give it the same speed boost.

What a shame... This is completely useless now, as others have mentioned it redirects most links to some shady tracking site first. They're just trying to collect and sell your data. Google really ought to remove this extension, because it's now just spyware.

Used to be good, but the new "update" makes it complete spyware. It redirects most links to some tracking site first. People who do not actively use adblockers or DNS sinkholes may not even realize this. DO NOT USE!

Не увидел прироста скорости за 5+ лет использования; Раз в 3 месяца спамит, предлагая установить sidebar manganum; Некоторые сайты отображаются некорректно, возможно, причина тоже в нём, не копал глубоко. Удалил.

I was using this extension for the preload feature when hovering over links. Despite the annoying habit of occasionally opening ads for its other extensions in new tabs, I kept using it. However, with recent updates, they've added something like an AI feature to Google search results. The extension is increasingly deviating from its original purpose and becoming shady. That's why I stopped using it.

添加了ai搜索功能但没有任何提示或显示来自该插件,并且该功能会显示广告赞助商的连接。 不确定个人数据是否被用于其他用途,有滥用的嫌疑。 Adding AI based the Smart Search in the right of search webside like Google without labeling it provided by this extension. And it will display the ads content provided by the sponsors. I cannot make sure whether my personal data will be used in other way.

upon updating the plugin, it opens a new tab for "Manganum Sidebar", an ad for a plugin. Not only that. it adds some sort of "AI" to google search called "Smart Search" on the right sidebar. kind of annoying that it doesn't prompt me telling that its from this plugin. I'm here just wanted to load the web faster, and not ai trying to tell me to add glue to my cheese.

FasterWeb ist brutral sinnvoll, aber wenn es im Broswer in installiert ist FasterWeb Icon Grau und man kann nichts einstellen, funksioniert FasterWeb hoffendlich trotzdem und macht Broswer und Internetseitenbau doch deutlich extrem schneller? FasterWeb ist sinnvoll, installiert alle dieses Add-on dann hat man extremste brutale verbesserung das alles extremst im Broswer schneller ist.

For those who are confused, IT DOES WORK. The way it works is that it minimizes a couple hundred milliseconds by pre-loading frequently opened tabs as well as pre-loading websites when you hover over a website's link which can work in your favorites tab or just searching normally on Google. The effect is small, but there is a difference and to test it, you can hover over any link for 3-4 seconds and watch how much faster it loads. Of course the results are better for people who ACTUALLY need this tool (slow internet OR low-end computer) versus someone who already has great internet speed and computer specs. The code is open source and there is no harmful malware plus the creators (browsecraft.com) have had a good reputation with other extensions which people liked.
