These are the technical names for certain algorithms which are part of
the problem and solution you are working with.

You want to have a technical discussion without using the relevant
technical terms?

You are very close to describing the pre-fetch version of the pre-cache
algorithm. If the "fetch pages" step was done through Squid there would
be no need to do the "send to squid" step. Do that change and you have
implemented the pre-fetch/pre-cache algorithm exactly.
