Systems and methods for loading webpages

Abstract

Described herein is a computer implemented method. The method includes receiving a plurality of requests for separable computer program units (SCPUs) from a first computer program, the plurality of requests including at least a first request for a first SCPU and a second request for a second SCPU. In response to determining that the first request and the second request are to be combined, a combined SCPU request is generated based on the first request and the second request. The combined SCPU request is sent to a remote server and in response a combined SCPU response that includes at least the first SCPU and the second SCPU is received. The first SCPU and the second SCPU are provided to the first computer program.
