 * Hi,
    there is a thread marked as resolved with the same question I have, but 
   there are no answers to this so I am asking again: Is there a way to preload 
   the cache somehow automatically? Thanks, tryingnew

 * Hi there
 * There’s no built-in functionality to preload the cache because it’s not something
   we typically recommend to users. It usually takes up a lot of server resources,
   especially on a larger sit.
 * However, if you’re familiar with programming, you could add a cron job that requests
   the individual web pages on a regular basis to ensure they are cached.
 * I _may_ create [an add-on](https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/cachify/issues/18)
   for this feature someday, but currently that’s the way to go.

 * Thank you very much. I did not know that it requires that many ressources. wWould
   this also be true for doing it via a cronjob?

 * Whatever method you use, loading different URLs dozens or even hundreds of times
   in a short amount of time will generate load on your server.
 * Depending on your whole setup, this might not be noticeable at all or make everything
   a tad slower.
 * I suggest you to try it out. If you only want to pre-load the homepage and the
   2-3 latest posts, that shouldn’t lead to any problems.
