Thread: Easy steps to tune up your Firefox installation

For those using Mozilla (one of the most popular and secure browsers) I have here some small tricks to optimize the speed of display, navigation, etc..

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

networca.http.pipelining
networca.http.proxy.pipelining
networca.http.pipelining.maxrequests

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

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set "networca.http.pipelining" to "true"

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

Set "networca.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number licae 30. This
means it will macae 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-clicca 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.

You-re Mozilla has been tuned-up !

Thanks for sharing. Ive tried "Network Tweaks" before to speed up my FF, but the effect is low.

Brilliant suggestions, thank you very much.
