Title: Firefox Users - How to make your Browser Faster.
Post by: A-Trak on January 14, 2005, 10:04:13 AM
not sure if this is new or old but got this off another messageboard. shit works, much faster.



1. Type about:config into the address bar and hit return.

2. Alter the entries as follows (by double clicking each entry):

    Set network.http.max-connections to 48

    Set network.http.max-connections-per-server to 24

    Set network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy to 12

    Set network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server to 6

    Set network.http.pipelining to true

    Set network.http.proxy.pipelining to true

    Set network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to 8. Any more and you may get banned from the site visited, as it may be viewed as DOS
    attack. Try a higher value say upto 32 but be prepared to lower the value if sites fail to load.

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, even if a dial-up connection it will still be faster than before.

good hsit man. this brower speed is pretty fucking ridiculous. its like instantaneous show up. i need to try this on a picture heavy site.. so does it just load pages faster? or does it actually make your downloads faster too.

jus askin...why wouldnt they do this in the first place...if it was this fast it would be a superior browser. i dont get why they wouldnt do that, it seems like it might fuck with the settings, like security or some shit...or maybe its like cars that have cpu's that limit speeds on the car itself, so these hackers got a chip n fuckin made the speed go faster then its allowed to haha.....but uhh...i tried it...and it said mozilla has encounter a problem...etc...etc. and i had to close it and i didnt feel like doin it again....its fast enuf...but yeah...if you got more info on how this works put it up...thanks tho....
