    This extension "fasterfox"
    Reeeaaallllly speedsup page loads
    http://fasterfox.mozdev.org/
    it seems to precache all the links in a page and more.

    yes i use foxytune and know about the chrome settings

    This extension automatically employs link prefetching, network tweaking, enhanced pop-up blocking, along with simultaneous connections, pipe-lining, enhanced caching, DNS caching, and initial paint delaying to make FireFox so fast it can break servers (or at least hurt them).

    I like the timer idea for testing and as if anyone is going to put the setting at courteous . No way it will be turbo or nothing .




    Edit : Not a good day for testing on this forum , man slower than molasses today .

    I've had this, and set to turbo charged, for a few weeks now.
    I dont really notice it much faster.
