Tip to speed up firefox alot.

I got this from another forum , the purpose of this is to enable the browser firefox to operate faster.

Open 'about:config' in your address bar and then...

For Broadband:

network.http.max-connections : 64
network.http.max-connections-per-server : 21
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server : 8
network.http.pipelining : true
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests : 100
network.http.proxy.pipelining : true

For Dial-up:

browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl : true
browser.xul.error_pages.enabled : true
content.interrupt.parsing : true
content.max.tokenizing.time : 3000000
content.maxtextrun : 8191
content.notify.backoffcount : 5
content.notify.interval : 750000
content.notify.ontimer : true
content.switch.threshold : 750000
network.http.max-connections : 32
network.http.max-connections-per-server : 8
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy : 8
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server : 4
network.http.pipelining : true
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests : 8
network.http.proxy.pipelining : true
nglayout.initialpaint.delay : 750
plugin.expose_full_path : true
signed.applets.codebase_principal_support : true

Then right click anywhere in that window(if your on broadband, this is useless on dialup) and click new>integer with the name "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and the value "0"

This will cause there to be no delay in rendering pages, and will also make a crapload of connections to a websites server. this is about the max number you can do before anti-DOS stuff kicks in at there end. and it WILL speed up browsing a lot...

I notice a difference too. But write the instuctions down. What a pain in the ass trying to switch back to here and the config bar. :)




Edit: Sorry Formula1 , I should of thanked you ! :blushing:

I forgot the last step , I'm on broadband ,it made it a little faster still. The right click one . :)

Been posted a million times before.

It really works. :)

Very Nice! I noticed a major difference! Pages "Flash" open with greater speed! Love it!

some pages still stay the same (but they're server is very slow..astalavista lags sometimes during a search..always there)

yep good stuff

thank god this was posted again (never saw the old posts)

just open another window (not tab) and make it so one is on top of the screen and one is on the bottom... that way you can see the instructions and set it up...
