Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and computer program products for reducing web latency using adaptive speculative preconnection are provided. Exemplary methods, systems, and computer program products for reducing web latency include initiating a connection to a first URL hostname, and obtaining speculative information associated with the first URL hostname. The speculative information includes a likelihood of connecting to a second URL hostname as a result of initiating a connection to the first URL hostname. The methods, systems, and computer program products also include determining whether to preconnect to the second URL hostname based on the speculative information. The methods, systems, and computer program products further include providing an instruction to preconnect to the second URL hostname when a determination to preconnect is made.
