Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the article-list transition and reader-loading code, then determine how prefetching should cover the next one or two articles and their images without excessive fetching; done means the behavior is implemented with an appropriate limit and verified by tests or profiling.

Description

article view performance timeline

Just a perceived performance thing! Pre-fetching the next article and images might be a nice addition. I wouldn't want to do too much fetching, but the next one or two would be amazing.

Congrats on 5.1!
