Firefox 3 as we all know is now super quick at loading pages. But there is always room ofr improvement and best of all since Firefox is open source software there is a lot of ways that you can mod the app.

1. Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit enter. You will get a warning about changing settings but we are not doing anything too radical so it is OK. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

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 8. This means it will make 8 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.

    1. Thanks for the informative post. My browser now even faster than before

    2. [...] Mit einem rechts Klick irgendwo hin einen neuen Integer Wert hinzufügen und ihm den Namen “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” geben. Als Wert “0” setzen. Dadurch wird die Zeit gesetzt die der Browser wartet bevor er auf Informationen reagiert die er bekommt. [via] [...]

      If you have the problem that riskyguy says, all you have to do is not do Step 3 of the instructions. Just don’t do the “New-> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0″”. If you already did it just delete nglayout.initialpaint.delay.
