Super-Cache Extension

Control caching behavior on the client side!

UPDATE:
Bugs fixed as reported by M-Ubaid Raza, thanks for informing.


Features

1. Override caching policy that has been set on the server.
Select a host on which the caching is required and all requests from a page with that host will be cached.
2. Caching of static content which are on a different host will also be cahed (read Note for further explanation)

Note: say you have a site example.com on which you have set a caching policy thru the extension. Now if the any page on example.com links to external scripts and sites which are on a different domain such as static.example.com or ajax.googleapis.com, the extension will automatically apply the same caching behavior as that of example.com

Vegetarier für Tierschutz (ID: 00000094dc8e3f6f) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/16/2019 Unfortunitely it works only in my 2 years old chromium, not in the 2019 chome. And unfortunitely i can not cache the "mainframe". Only 3 positions to cache, instead of 4 positions. But when it works, it works wonderful. Youtube and Stream-Websites starts much faster. Therefore i need a update !!
