Summary

Skips the PreloadScan step of the browser to explore performance tradeoffs
for pages with no sub-resource fetches. PreloadScan step of Chromium is
implemented as a blocking step that benefits performance of pages with
sub-resource fetches, via implementation of the speculative prefetch.
However, for pages that don’t benefit from this step, i.e., for pages with
no sub-resources, this is additional processing overhead with little
benefit. For advanced web users who would like to benefit by reducing this
overhead, this experiment provides a page-level control to disable the
PreloadScanner. Data collected from this experiment could evaluate if a
modified API or a different implementation of HTMLPreloadScanner would be
helpful.

WebView application risks

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that
it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

None


Goals for experimentation



Ongoing technical constraints

None


Debuggability

None


Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac,
Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?No

Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>
?No

No, since in this iteration we don’t have a web exposed API, and the valid
OriginTrial token itself is currently used to trigger the feature. We plan
to fully test the API via web-platform-tests once they are proposed.
