Hi all,  
I found the discussion about dynamic load of static resources in the web: [http module automatically retrieve embedded resources in the dom · Issue #1411 · gatling/gatling · GitHub](https://github.com/gatling/gatling/issues/1411)  
My questions are:  
A) How scans Gatling the HTML page source for static resources and loads it?  
B) If that’s working: How I setup Gatling to simulate browser cache, in the manner, that from the 2nd call of the HTML page on no cached resources are loaded?

Thank you in advance for a detailed response.  
Best, Niko

That’s enabled by default and can be [disabled](https://gatling.io/docs/gatling/reference/current/http/protocol/#disablecaching).
