Description

The preload process was slowed down in the last release due to problems it created on very cheap hosting.

It should be more flexible by adding a form where the site owner can:
* Choose how many requests to make per job.
* The pause between requests.
* The pause before the next job.

It should have a "RESET" button for anyone who messes things up too much.

Preload is done sequentially, so increasing the number of requests shouldn't be a problem for most sites.

The job is limited by the PHP timeout limit. That is reset by using `set_time_limit()` but some servers will still terminate the process before it finishes. The preload process may need extra checks and scheduled maintenance jobs to ensure the process continues running if a user picks numbers that are too large.
