The Preload sites feature in Google Chrome can speed up page loads, and I’ll walk you through how to activate it in this tutorial.
By anticipating and preloading pages you’re likely to visit through Google servers, preload pages enhance your online browsing experience by accelerating page loads. If you want to preload some or more pages, you can select the regular or extended option. You typically get the finest results when you choose the extended option.
I’ll walk you through the simple process of turning on or off Google Chrome’s functionality to speed up browsing on Windows 11, 10, macOS, and other compatible platforms in this post.

Enable the preloading pages feature in Chrome
Use these actions to speed up the Chrome browser’s loading time:
Launch Google Chrome.
To access the main menu, click the “Customize and control Google Chrome” buttons (three dots).
Make the Settings selection.
Select Performance.
Activate the Preload page toggle.
(Option 1) To reduce the time it takes for pages to load, use the Extended preloading option.
(Option 2) To speed up some pages, choose the Standard preloading option.
In order to expedite surfing and searches, the Chrome browser will anticipate the pages you are likely to visit and preload them through Google servers when other websites request them.
Pages will load more quickly if you select the usual preloading option, but only a portion of them will be preloaded via Google servers.
When you enable this function, you’ll notice that online pages display a little faster if you’re wondering how quickly sites will load. However, if the website is hosted on a dependable server and you already have a strong internet connection, that helps.
You may speed up your surfing experience by turning off useless tabs, deleting extensions from chrome://extensions those you don’t use or that are known to cause lag, and terminating unnecessary jobs via Chrome’s Task Manager (Ctrl + Esc). You can also enable Preload pages.
Disable the preloading pages feature in Chrome
Follow these instructions to stop Chrome’s page preloading:
Launch Google Chrome.
To access the main menu, click the “Customize and control Google Chrome” buttons (three dots).
Make the Settings selection.
Select Performance.
Switch off the Preload page toggle.
Following the procedures, the browser will no longer preload content from Google servers; instead, the surfing experience will be dependent on the state of the web server and internet connection.
