4.55.1 - Fast Mode for CDP Mode

Fast Mode for CDP Mode

The main reason for Fast Mode (fast=True / --fast) is because CDP Mode normally performs actions at human-like speed to avoid triggering bot-detection when web sites are tracking time between actions performed on a web page. Since not all websites have that tracking, it may be possible to do browser automation at full speed while still maintaining stealth. Also, if people are using CDP Mode on sites that don't have any bot-detection at all, then there might not be a good reason to throttle the speed in the first place.

In Fast Mode, there is also no initial delay when navigating to a website. The purpose of this delay was to give time for automatic CAPTCHAs to complete successfully, such as the Cloudflare interstitial page.
