Yes, firefox is already pretty damn fast but did you know that you can tweak it and

improve the speed even more? That's Here's In the ation the beauty of this program being open source. what you do: URL bar, type about:config and press enter. This will bring up the configur menu where you can change the parameters of Firefox.

Note that these are what I ve found to REALLY speed up my Firefox significantly and these settings seem to be common among everybody else as well. But these set tings are optimized for broadband connections - I mean with as much concurrent r equests we re going to open up with pipelining lol you d better have a big connection. Double Click on the following settins and put in the numbers below - for the tru e / false booleans - they ll change when you double click. Code: browser.tabs.showSingleWindowModePrefs true network.http.max-connections 48 network.http.max-connections-per-server 16 network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy 8 network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server 4 network.http.pipelining true network.http.pipelining.maxrequests 100 network.http.proxy.pipelining true network.http.request.timeout 300 One more thing Right-click somewhere on that screen and add a NEW -> Integer. Nam e 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. Since you re br oadband - it shouldn t have to wait. Now you should notice you re loading pages MUCH faster now!
