Prepopulating caches

[frederikcreemers]

Unless your pages are hosted as a static site, your server can include initial data with the request for the HTML, determined by the URL. It would be cool if there was a way to prepopulate the cache. For example, when I go to /user/123, the client could send a json representation of that graphql node down to the client. That would save a roundtrip. But depending on the data model, even more roundtrips could be saved by something like this.

Check out this issue #136

Yup, check out #136 as well as isomorphic-relay. That should cover this use-case - please feel free to comment here if you think something's missing and we can reopen.
