Tweak Firefox

[peat moss]

Can't help but think where's the FireFox 2 tips ? Was wondering if anyone had some "about config." tweaks for FF2 ?


I see Fasterfox 2.0 is out for FF2 now . Released 10/30/06 .

tweaks for FF2.0 are all the same.

Fasterfox 2.0 actually slows down my website display speed. I tried all the different options and I get the fastest time without the add-on enabled.

btw IKE, I just saw that movie I was in with Elisha Cuthbert. It was Dark, but she was Hot...none the less. The name of the flick was "The Quiet". It's VERY dark for a movie though, so I think the critiques started forming a conga-line during the screening.

adding these performance related tweaks (forgot where I found 'em) to my user.js file made the biggest speed performance boost for me - using firefox 2.0 btw
