OffscreenPageLimit behaviour for ViewPager from Accompanist

Question

I am using HorizontalViewPager from Accompanist to show an image in each page of the viewpager. I am loading images with Coil. Here's the code:

val pagerState = rememberPagerState()

HorizontalPager(count = photos.size, state = pagerState) {
    idx ->
    photos[idx].let { cur ->
        Image(
            painter = rememberImagePainter(url),
            contentDescription = null,
            modifier - Modifier.fillMaxSize(), 
            contentScale = ContentScale.FillHeight,
            alignment = Alignment.Center
        )
    }
}

It is working fine. But, Images are being loaded only after the page is opened. I was wondering if there is a way to preload the content of the adjacent pages of viewpager before they are opened.

ViewPager from AndroidX offers similar behavior with setOffscreenPageLimit method.
