FIREFOX USERS: Surf 3x FASTER!!!!

[NIGHTfall_240sx]

This one actually works, believe it or not. My Firefox saw a huge speed increase.

Merry christmas everybody!

1. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipeliningnetwork.http.proxy.pipeliningnetwork.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.

I think I have whiplash. Thanks!I must be maxing out my connection because the load is faster but it hits 1-2 instead of the previous slower but more linear load. Fine by me though!

Interesting...now IE lost it's advantage. I've tried FireFox and while novel, pretty worthless to me. (I'm not too concerned with sweaty nerds online giving me e-props because I'm using some upstart program that they think is so underground and cool.) I run IE with the Google toolbar and have anti-spyware programs so i never have popups or any of that crap and I can actually visit all the sites I need to, which FireFox often won't let me do. But now that FireFox is as fast as IE, and maybe the sites will come around to supporting the browser...very interesting.

whoa my friend... take a deep breath in.... now slowly out..

there you go.

using firefox has nothing to do with being "underground" and "cool" , its more along the lines of... SAFE. IE has security holes like no other. IE is a wondeful browser as long as you look foward to having your computer taken over by junk *wares. Since day 1 with firefox, i have yet to have gotten a *ware forced on to my computer. I even visited paged i know have dangerous scripts to see if i will get infected again as i did using IE, and nothing happen. its a great browser to keep your computer... yours.

Wow, thanks man. Now my dial-up connection feels slow as hell . Oh wait, it is always slow as hell .

For this modification to work best with dial-up users, I would recommend changing the "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to double the normal ammount, for me, I put it to 8.

You've just given me a goal my friend. I'll take a known 'ware script, and modify it to work with Mozilla/Firefox :biggrin

[[Zero-S]]

PMQ do it and I will bomb your house unabomber style.

Oh and thx nightfall.

[PoorManQ45]

Hmm.. Somebody point me to a website that normally infects computers that use Internet Explorer. I havn't seen one of those sites for about 2 months, which is about when I started using Firefox.

But, I have Microsoft Frontpage and Dreamweaver Mx, so I think I just might have to create a wicked a$$ script just for you Firefox users

[krazy skwerel]

Thank you kind sir's. Even though I am on dial up I can tell a difference.
