This is one of the most vital tricks for you if you want to gear up with a quick browser. If you have a broadband connection (and most of us do), you can use pipe lining to speed up your page loads. This allows Firefox to load multiple things on a page at once, instead of one at a time (by default, it’s optimized for dial-up connections). Here’s how:
1. Type about:config into the address bar and hit return.
2. Type network.http in the filter field, and change the following settings (double-click on them to change them):
3. Set network.http.pipelining to true
4. Set network.http.proxy.pipelining to true
5. Set network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to a number like 30. This will allow it to make 30 requests at once.
6. Also, 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 receives.
It may seem greek or latin to you. Trust me, its not going to harm your computer or Firefox in any way, rather you will enjoy much faster browsing from now on. Try it and let me know.
