FairySari Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I found this on another message board, it makes firefox load pages super fast.Here's something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up:0. Upgrade your firefox to the latest version!1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:network.http.pipeliningnetwork.http.proxy.pipeliningnetwork.http.pipelining.maxrequestsNormally 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 MUCH faster now!Yay tribe!
