    FireFox Memory Fix

    Deserves its own post. (Courtesy of SilverCashThurbs on BVF's thread)

    This is how you fix FireFox's "memory leak" problem. (It's not actually a leak, it just doesn't flush the cache it has.)

    1)Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
    2)Right click any line to bring up a sub-menu
    3)Choose "new">"integer"
    4)paste this into the dialogue that appears: browser.cache.memory.capacity
    5)Next click Okay
    6)Specify the amount in kb (about 60000 should do) in the next dialogue that appears
    7)Restart Firefox and happy surfing.

    I just did it and it works perfectly.

                    a. 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.

                    b. 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.

                    c. 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 2-3 times faster now.

                                          whoa!!!!!!!!!!! MUCH BETTER Does this mean a page gets 30 hits from one visitor?

                                                  I am still on FF though there are indeed some problems lately.
                                                  Anyway, thanks for that man.

                                                              network.http.pipelining

                                                              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.

                                                              b. 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.

                                                              c. 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 2-3 times faster now.
                                                              this was the highlight of the 1.0.7 update

                                                                    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.

                                                                    b. 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.

                                                                    c. 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 2-3 times faster now.

                                                                    Fling.com doesn't steal your traffic and sales unlike some other dating companies. I promote them, and so should you!
