				How to Drastically Speed Up FireFox Browser
			 Works like a charm! Broadband users can get a significant speed increase from Firefox just by changing a couple of settings. Firefox is distributed with settings that will work with any machine or setup, but really anyone with a half-decent connection can make these changes and get a great speed increase, and here's how you do it! Inside the address bar type: about:config and then find: network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining and set them both to "true". This adjusts the pipelining settings. Then find network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and set it to 8, though you should feel free to play with this number a little and tweak it as you see fit - the article http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.ht...ng.maxrequests suggests that 8 is easiliy sufficient. Finally, right-click on any setting and select 'new' and then 'integer'. Set the name to "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" (you might want to copy & paste it) and set the value to "0" (zero). This removes the render delay. Presto you should notice a significant speed increase from a simple optimization!

				 | Here are some other handy ones, some of these may only work in ff3. browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll = True toolkit.scrollbox.scrollIncrement = 75 Enable spell check in text fields layout.spellcheckDefault = 2 To speed up the browser network.http.max-connections = 96 network.http.max-connections-per-server = 32 network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server = 8 network.http.pipelining = true network.http.proxy.pipelining = true network.http.pipelining.maxrequests = 8 network.http.pipelining.ssl = true network.http.proxy.pipelining = true Make animations only loop once to stop annoying ads, sigs, and avatars. image.animation_mode = once network.prefetch-next = false To show more tabs on single window browser.tabs.tabMinWidth = 75 Stop Displaying Website Icon (Favicon) in Address bar & On Tab browser.chrome.site_icons = false Scroll webpage in One Go mousewheel.withaltkey.action = 1
