Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to the caching of network content requested by a user of a client computing device during a browsing session. The client computing device's various networks and varying bandwidth can have a negative impact on the browsing session. Caching of network content can enhance performance. For example, network content can be cached on a wireless mobile device so that it is available on the device at a further time without requiring significant bandwidth or, in some cases, even a network connection. Predicting the bandwidth at the time the cached content will be accessed can allow customized caching and an improved user experience.
