L0u1s Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 This is just for faster browsing, is it ? Does anyone know if there is something to speed up FF when you want to start him up. Cuz that takes like 5-10 sec before FF opens in a window after I klciked it ... Is this normal or not ?

After the second time you start it it?s way faster though.

After the second time you start it it?s way faster though. 585458878[/snapback] Yes only when I leave at least 1 FF page open in my task bar. But if I reomove all the FF pages, and then double klick FF again, it also takes like 5sec ... my System: P3 1.01 GHz 256 MB RAM XP Pro.

Koolslacker Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I downloaded "Tweak Network setting" extension. It is basically same thing. I think it makes a difference on my 3Mb connection.

CrisCr0ss Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Place this in your User.js using Tool>edit user files you need chrome edit installed. Iv noticed this too sped up my firefox a bit too, offcourse you need to apply the tweak posted above. user_pref("browser.display.show_image_placeholders", false); user_pref(bowser.cache.disk_cache_ssl, true); user_pref(content.interrupt.parsing, true); user_pref(content.max.tokenizing.time, 3000000); user_pref(content.maxtextrun, 8191); user_pref(content.notify.backoffcount, 5); user_pref(content.notify.interval, 750000); user_pref(content.notify.ontimer, true); user_pref(content.switch.threshold, 750000); user_pref(browser.xul.error_pages.enabled, true); Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/243907-faster-browsing-with-firefox/page/8/#findComment-585817791 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tp2215 Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Hey, why dont you all just download Firetune by total idea software. It does absolutly the same thing but ads a bunch more tweaks as well... http://www.totalidea.com/freestuff4.htm Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/243907-faster-browsing-with-firefox/page/8/#findComment-585827960 Share on other sites More sharing options...
duerra Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Grrrrrrrrr..... Even 8 is too many. Just use the default of 4. network.http.pipelining.maxrequests: 4 The OS limits the number of connections that a server can have open at any given time. Apache by default limits itself to 256 connections. If you're hogging 8 of those connections, how many is that leaving for other users on a site? The Mozilla crew has it at 4 as the default for a reason. Leave it that way. That said, enabling pipelining is a good thing. Just don't abuse it. I've configured my server to ban users trying to use more than 4 simultaneous connections.
