I found it particularly hard to save a website like it’s delivered with some of the tools around. In some cases, it can be hard to get to the actual artefact. Note that the pool of Puppeteer instances is internally managed by the BrowserPool class.For some of my performance audits I need an exact copy of the webpage as it is served by my clients infrastructure. For user convenience, the minConcurrency and maxConcurrency AutoscaledPoolOptions are available directly in the PuppeteerCrawler constructor. Parameter of the PuppeteerCrawler constructor.

If both PuppeteerCrawlerOptions.requestList and PuppeteerCrawlerOptions.requestQueue are used, The source URLs are represented using Request objects that are fed from RequestList or RequestQueue instances provided by the PuppeteerCrawlerOptions.requestList or PuppeteerCrawlerOptions.requestQueue constructor options, respectively. If the target website doesn't need JavaScript, consider using CheerioCrawler, which downloads the pages using raw HTTP requests and is about 10x faster. Since PuppeteerCrawler uses headless Chrome to download web pages and extract data, it is useful for crawling of websites that require to execute JavaScript.

The URLs to crawl are fed either from a static list of URLs or from a dynamic queue of URLs enabling recursive crawling of websites. A simple framework for parallel crawling of web pages using headless Chrome with Puppeteer.
