Preloading doesn't work in every situation, for example Wikipedia depends on one class corresponding to multiple files for progressive deployments; the right file will be determined at runtime. This is not something the preloader can do, AFAIU. For people who are unable to take advantage of I was actually thinking of proposing adding a PSR-4 autoloader to PHP core. -- Best regards, Max Semenik
