>how to make firefox load 3 times faster (it really works)<

[dabbler]

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 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 recieves.

If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages 2-3 times faster now.

here's a mod that allows you to download all the links on one page (firefox only), you can que up all the downloads and then walk away.
haven't tried it yet, since i'm at work, but i'll post back later with details.

1) about:config
2) Find "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and change from 250 to 15.
2) Find "network.http.max-connections" and make the value 64.
3) Find "network.http.max-connections-per-server" and make the value 21.
4) Find "network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server" and make the value 8.

Oh yeah, here is another way to speed up your network connection by disabling QoS in Windows XP.
