OEmbed Lazyload

The OEmbed Lazyload module aims to prevent the unnecessary loading of third party assets until such time that the user expresses interest in viewing the third party content.

This project was developed in order to help optimize projects that rely heavily on core media oembed content. Oembed on its own has the potential to load excessive third party assets even if a user has no intention of consuming the content.

For example, loading oembed content from YouTube can add nearly 750kB to what a user has to download on every page view.
