make firefox faster

Postby Buliwyf » Sun Dec 03, 2006 2:31 am

from ignightmare on ign forums:


1) type in 'about:config' in your address bar

2) type in 'pip' in the top filter bar

3) Set 'network.http. pipeling' to TRUE (right click > toggle)

4) Set 'network.http. proxy. pipelining' to TRUE (right click > toggle)

5) Set 'network.http. pipelinging. maxrequests' to a number. (try numbers between 5 and 50 to see what works the best for you)

6) Right click > New > Integer

7) Type in 'nglayout.initialpaint.delay'

8) Type in '0'

The video wants me to "upgrage my flash player". Smells like malware to me.
