Re: Why?
said by TweakFreak88  :is this really needed w/ broadband connections transfer rates today? It's still faster to load websites through a local cache sometimes. Especially if the site is bogged down. While you are reading a page, the "accelerator" can be downloading other links from the site in the background. |

| Which can be a waste of disk space and bandwidth. I view a lot of first pages and then leave without going inside. A lot of sites just aren't worth it.
I suspect this won't offer much unless you visit a lot of really popular sites.

Huntington Beach, CA | How often are these cached web pages updated? I don't want to be looking at web pages an hour, a day or a week old. Sounds good for sites that rarely update, but most pages I view change on a minute to hourly to daily basis. |

I uninstalled it after it couldn't retrieve a few pages over the course of the day. It only saved me 34 seconds by its accounting anyway. If you add in those lost pages I'm sure I actually lost some time. Perhaps it qualifies as an idea without a need.
