    <thetext>processSpeculationRules() scans ALL links on every style recalculation, performing pattern/selector evaluations per anchor. For conservative rules (eagerness: conservative), the result is only consumed at user interaction time (mousedown/pointerdown/keydown). This is wasted work on pages with many links (e.g. magnifiedsand.com with 934 links).

This patch defers matching for conservative-only rules to interaction time in HTMLAnchorElement::defaultEventHandler(), skipping the full-page anchor scan in Document::processSpeculationRules() and HTMLAnchorElement::checkForSpeculationRules() when all rules are conservative.</thetext>
