PrefetchType
About
Flying Pages is a 
WordPress performance plugin that preloads pages in the browser before navigation to deliver near-instant page transitions.
It injects a lightweight script of about 1 KB, detects links in the viewport and on mouse hover to start prefetching, limits requests using an internal queue, pauses preloading when the server is under load, and skips it entirely for slow connections or data-saver modes to avoid unnecessary resource usage.
The rel="prefetch" attribute on 
HTML <link> elements tells the browser to download resources that are likely to be needed for future navigation when the current page is idle.
It allows caching resources in advance with low priority and is commonly used for next-page documents, scripts, styles, or assets in multi-step flows.
