not testd by me as i use OPERA!!

So, this is the way to BOOST UP your Firefox....

ATTENTION !!!!
It works well, BUT JUST FOR BROADBAND USERS !!!!


Basically after getting to the hidden config settings you set the browser to request more data that it usually does.

1.Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links]
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links]
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links]

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.[Only registered and activated users can see links]; to “true”

Set “network.[Only registered and activated users can see links]; to “true”

Set “network.[Only registered and activated users can see links]; to some number like 100. This means it will make 100 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 receives.

If you’re using a broadband connection you’ll load pages MUCH faster now!

More options:

For ADSL:
1. Type: about:config
2. Set:
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 64
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 21
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 8
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : true
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 100
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : true

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. (Copy from TvM)

For Dial_ip:
browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl : true
browser.xul.error_pages.enabled : true
content.interrupt.parsing : true
content.max.tokenizing.time : 3000000
content.maxtextrun : 8191
content.notify.backoffcount : 5
content.notify.interval : 750000
content.notify.ontimer : true
content.switch.threshold : 750000
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 32
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 8
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 8
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 4
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : true
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : 8
network.[Only registered and activated users can see links] : true
nglayout.initialpaint.delay : 750
plugin.expose_full_path : true

actually for maxrequests you dont have to set it to 100, just 50 or something...otherwise the webpage cannot handle so many requests in one go if every sets theirs to 100
