1. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return.
2.
2
Look for “network.http.keep-alive”. If it’s false, double-click that line and to change it to true.
3.
3
Make sure “network.http.version” is set to “1.1″.
4.
4
Look for “network.http.pipelining”. If it’s false, double-click that line and change it to true.
5.
5
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to true by double-clicking it.
6.
6
Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to 8 by double-clicking it. This means it will make 8 requests at once. There is no point setting it higher then 8 as it is capped at 8 max. The default value for this setting is 4.
7.
7
Optional: 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 shows you the information it receives. This is particularly helpful on pages with search bars, however, it doesn't actually make the page load faster.

Alternate Method for Broadband Users

1.
1
Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:
* 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.
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.
3.
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!

Bring that topic out of the thread staff and keep on topic!

I would do this but I dont run firefox I think google chrome is so much better... use to have firefix.

It was one post about it being copy and pasted information. No need to get all mad about it.

Anyways, I tried these and didn't see a difference.

Its kinda like a optimizer i dare tried it optimized my IE not much difference. Its all to do with cpu speed and ram and also network.
