High-performance streaming installation of software applications can be achieved by pre-fetching chunks of application files. Pre-fetching can be directed by a recipe file that can handle a wide variety of application behaviors. If a missing chunk is encountered during execution of the application, a cache miss record can be created and forwarded to a telemetry server. Cache miss records can be aggregated to generate a revised recipe file so that future installations of the application avoid the missing chunk scenario. Using the revised recipe file can cause fewer interruptions, result in less delay and otherwise improve performance.
