Abstract
Heavy content is selectively provided over a network to a client device using a background mode based on a user's tracked behavior and other profile information, such that the heavy content may be served up within a web page, messenger application, and/or other application when the user of the client device performs a particular action, such as requesting a web page configured to display the heavy content. Based on the user's profile, heavy content is downloaded onto the user's client device automatically without the user performing additional actions and before the user accesses a web page that may enable access to the heavy content. When the user requests a web page, the web page is parsed to determine whether it is configured for use with heavy content. If so, then the downloaded heavy content is served to the user based on the requested web page and user identifier.
