Firefox Users: Learn How to Load Pages Faster

[Underage_Thinker]

Wile i was sifting through some text documents i have, i found this useful tutorial on how to make FF run faster. This will probably only help those with a broadband connection.

Here's something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up:

"1.Type about:config into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down 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 (zero). 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!"

*sits and waits for the FF VS Avant debate to ensue*

I've tried that awhile back. When my comp reformatted I lost the settings but I don't think I really noticed a difference.

Like what I say of how?
Lol might want to change that.

ROFL, Firefox.... use internet explorer,

[The Mask]

Lol, thanks for that. FF is so muck fucking quicker now lol.

True... Internet Explorer uses Pipelining automatically; which also means Avant Browser, AOL Browser, and Maxthon all do the same.

Just get Avant Browser (yeah, I said that in this thread) :P
