Default Turbocharge FireFox

Picked this up on another forum...supposed to speed up FireFox browser up to 10X.


1. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit enter. 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 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 recieves.

I tried it on Waterfox. Hard to tell with this ssd installed, but anyway it did no harm.

Might have to try out FF, Chrome sucks and Opera is acting twitchy lately (although it might be my addons). I only use IE for important stuff like email.

I just realized something. You used to have to do this back on IE6 as well.
