Google Search Now Uses Service Worker For Repeated Searches

An anonymous reader writes: Google Search is now using Service Worker to cache repeated searches, loading results twice as fast. The tidbit was shared this week by Dion Almaer, Google director of engineering, and Ben Galbraith, Google senior director of product, at Pluralsight Live in Salt Lake City, Utah. "Google Search's mission is to get relevant results to you as quickly as possible," Almaer said onstage. "So they invested in the largest deployment of Service Worker probably out there by being able to extra work on the fly and give you results sometimes twice as fast."
