[Tutorial] Speeding up Mozilla Firefox - Elektrisk - 10-06-2009
Hello.
I would paste the contents of this tutorial in the thread, but there're too many images to post. So, I'm going to post the link here which leads to the indepth tutorial.
I've done this myself and have seen dramatic results. It is very awesome, although I've heard it only works for those of you who are using a broadband connection.
Enjoy.

I'm pretty sure the tutorial explains what each value stands for.

I only skimmed through it so I it didn't make sense at first but now that I read the whole thing yeah it does explain

You are setting your browser to send more requests to the server
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests shouldn't be set high since on some pages you will get an error and the page will not be loaded.
In that tutorial it's shown to set it to 8 so setting it to 16 would speed it up a bit more, but don't set to high

Just CTRL+ALT+DLT and set the priority higher? lol

This is a risky move, setting pipelining and other according variables to a higher value might get you banned via sites' firewall.

I've never been banned and I've been using those tweaks for years...
