Is your FireFox running slow? Well, there’s a really easy tweak available that can make it much faster, which I found on this page.
Here’s how you do the tweak:
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 requests 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 receives.
This fix worked like a charm and my FireFox is super-fast now. I recommend you also perform this tweak if you haven’t already.
