1. Type about:config in the address bar and hit enter, now search the following entries (note the filter)
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.
First try 30, see the difference, then do what i did and switch it to something like 250 to 500 etc, you'll see
3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set its value to 0 (zero). This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.
If you're using broadband it'll be a lot faster, close firefox, when you start it back up it'll be in effect.
Don't have firefox? get it here..
