   I really appreciate the Archive team's efforts to make the Wayback Machine more responsive, and have donated a few times to support them.

   Unfortunately, the restrictions have been way too strict for the last few months: from my residential IP, simply moving the mouse on the calendar for a specific URL is enough to get stuck on 429 error messages for a while; and from corporate ISPs (for example, on airport WiFi), you often can't access the WM at all. I hope they'll find a way to relax those.

      I wonder if your browser is prefetching every link you move the mouse over.

         I don't think so, but moving the mouse over any date in the calendar makes a request for the list of snapshots taken on that day.
