My suggestion is pragmatically.

It would be may be to much pre parsing, if every target page of a link is pre parsed.

The target page for the first link is OK, I think. And in the typical case of endnotes, the target page will contain more than only the content of the first link, but also the second or third.

But:
When the implementation shows, that - by energy drain - it is OK to pre parse every target page:
even better.

Well, I hope you are right with your appreciation about the improvements of speed.

But I think a smart pre parsing will always be faster.

And for the "feeling" to really have fun in working with endnotes (or other internal links) the speed cannot be valued high enough, IMHO.

Usability studies always show: delay is evil. People don't like it (if they ever experienced a faster way)
