Dr. Nick Riviera Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 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.maxrequestsNormally 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". 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!I RULE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaXsteri Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Or install the FasterFox extension and it does it all for you(except it sets network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to 8 instead of 30) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
