Speed up Firefox

[DeTaiLs]

i found this on another site not sure if it works but figure i pass on the information

1. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll
down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time.
When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really
speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"

Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"

Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This
means it will make 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer.
Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0".
This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.

If you're using a brodband connection you'll load pages 2-3 times faster now.

There is also a program that can do stuff like this it's FireTune

works. on the max requests, it should be 8 because then you wont be able to visit some sites. and some will think of it as a DDoS attack.

Old, but still postworthy.

And it doesn't matter if it's 30, because I use 30 and no webpages seem to stop me from viewing.

Wow, pages do load alot faster, thanks

"Search for Network." - None
I searched for all of them on there cos there's too many to look through, and it doesnt find it. Eh.?

[Meh]

Awsome, its suprising the difference.

Mitosis: Filter as "network". It will find them then.

QwertyMonster: it's in alphabetic order. 

Meh: that's not Mitosis

[Meh]
