Fireup firefox speed by upto 2-30 times faster-100% working!

1. type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. scroll
down(or ctrl+f) 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 broadband connection you'll load pages 2-30 times faster now.

i tried it and it worked.
Its also working with "netscape" :)

your turn!

Or you could just get the FasterFox plugin and do the same thing automatically.

30 times faster eh? :lol:

No way, Opera still smokes FF...even though FF is my browser of choice, Faster fox screws more up then it helps.

not even 2 let alone 30.

Thanks all for your input. First off I do have ESET Smart Security 4 and I checked the settings that you said to. Problem is ESET is very vague on whether a check mark means excluded or not. I think it is.

Also I checked on those settings in about:config and everything was already tweaked except for "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" Sorry to disagree with you on that but from everything I have read, it does no good to set the value above 8, although I imagine there would be a lot of people who dissagree with that.

Also I throttled back on uTorrent, the maximum number of connections to 100, the number of connected peers to 50 (though that might be too low, I don't know) the number of upload slots per torrent to 5 and the maximum upload rate to 20 kB/s. This has all helped quite a bit

I also had a tech friend of mine suggest that I look on the uTorrent site for a fix to the problem. He told me that, when this happens again, open Task Manager and check the Networking stats. That if there is any bandwidth being used after you shut down the bittorrent client and you don't have the browser open then that means the users from the bittorrent haven't been disconnected.

He suggests instead of rebooting to open a command window and use the ipconfig release/renew command to reset and reconnect your ip connection. That will disconnect any torrent users still connected. I tried that and ipconfig /release worked but ipconfig /renew drew an error.

He also said that I could even write a small script to automatically release and renew your ip connection, though that is a little byond my capabilities.

not much noticable difference if u have 512 kbps line .. lol
