In some sites in their home pages, as u scroll down, modules appear one by one.
I think this enhances page load time. How can i do this in Joomla? Is it doable? Is there a plugin or something for this matter?

I think what you're seeing doesn't actually "load" the module when in the viewport. It's already loaded but is hidden, then when it's in the viewport, it becomes visible. – Lodder Aug 23 '16 at 15:06

What you're thinking of may increase server loading time, but will absolutely destroy your server resources as it will require a load of Ajax requests. – Lodder Aug 23 '16 at 15:08

"Lazy loading" may be what you are describing.
There is a free Joomla extension, "Lazy Load for Joomla!" which helps with this but is more for images than modules.

yeah, exactly. jch plugin has this function for images. and i thought it would be good to do the same thing about modules. – kiasaty Aug 24 '16 at 5:56
I would be very careful using the lazyload method. I have seen many instances where the content (images) at top do not load until the page scrolls even 1 pixel.
You might consider using scrollfire/magic.. this allows you to load certain content based on where the user is on their scrolling position.

You can use sp-pagebuilder. The functionality is there by default. In sp-pagebuilder, goto row settings chose the animation what you want, increase the delay time. U are done.
