Make Your Firefox Much Faster!

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: (by double clicking them)

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. (I changed mine to 100, works great.)

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


After this restart firefox and it should be much faster.

 

Old.. Been around for years, But thanks

 

Ive seen this before..It didnt seem to work for me but did for other..

Thanks for the reminder

 

Worked for me, thanks mate

 

Ypu realise this is availbe of the mozilla website? lol

 

Just did this and seems to be helping, thanks!

 

no. that doesn't increase the speed much and it places a heavy load on servers because it send repeated requests

google fasterfox, it does a better version of this for you automatically
