Can you elaborate on why disabling a feature that exists soley for performance reasons makes "the browser quite a bit snappier"?

How does DNS prefetching correlate with enable-private-browsing? It doesn't say.

dns-prefetch → dns-prefetching

Since: 1.2.8 → Since: 1.1.13

It might be nice to briefly explain what DNS prefetching does as it appears in the dcoumentation now.
