How would this affect bounce rate and time on site stats, especially if the users don't end up clicking on the first result? I'm hoping Google hasn't forgotten to remove pre-fetch results from these stats, but these days, you never know.

Also, what's the point of shaving off a few seconds (and only if the user click on the first result), when users have to spend ages trying to find the right result on the messed up SERPs right now (was searching for "interest rates" the other day, and the top 6 results were interest rate pages for other countries).
