How to boot the speed of Firefox to browse faster

1 . 1 . Open the Firefox " config" page: click into the
Firefox address location bar , and type
about : config, press Enter .
2 . The " Config" file will appear in the Firefox browser as a
page with hundreds of
lines of code in it. Now , we start by enabling some advanced
tabbed options :
3 . Locate the line
browser . tabs . showSingleWindowModePrefs . ( tip : press " b "
on your
keyboard to quick scroll ) .
4 . Double click on
browser . tabs . showSingleWindowModePrefs . This will set its
toggle
to " true " . Now your advanced and enhanced tabbing should
be set .
Note: in Firefox version 1 . 5 , the command line is
single window . open in tabs .
5 . Next : we will increase the " pipeline" RAM ability for
Firefox to accomodate more
packet transfer. In the same config document , scroll down to
the line that says
network . http . pipelining . Double click this line to set it to
" true " .
6 . Lastly, we will increase the maximum pipeline requests to
100 . Find the line that
says
network . http . pipelining. maxrequests. Double click on it, and
a dialog box will
pop up . Change the setting from 4 to 100 .
7 . No need to save this file. Simply close and restart Firefox,
and you should see an
immediate 10 % to 40 % increase in web page transfer speed ,
and faster opening
of your tabbed windows ! Enjoy !
