Making Firefox Faster. 0

I found an article online about how to make Firefox faster. I have just tried this to my browser and its been working really great. This is only recommended to broadband users who are using the Firefox browser.

So how do we get started with this?

First you have to type the following in your address bar:

about:config

To shorten the list out type network.http.p in the Filter field.

Step 1 to 3

Step 4

1. Find network.http.pipelining and click on it to turn it's value from false to true.
2. Find network.http.proxy.pipelining and click on it to turn it's value from false to true.
3. Find network.http.pipelining.maxrequest and change it's value to 30.
4. Finally you will need to add an extra preference. You can do that by CTRL-Clicking in an empty area and selecting New/Integer from the contextual menu. Enter the name in a pop-up window: nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set it's value to O.

Excerpt from CreativeBits

All you have to do now is restart your browser. You will notice how fast your browser will render pages almost instantly. Its pretty amazing.

What these settings do is allow pipelining through Firefox and allowing multiple http requests form the server("30") and redering the pages at "0" delay. Pretty self explanatory.

That's pretty much it, now your browser really blows Internet Explorer out of the water!

Happy Browsing
