faster firefox hack
this is an old but very handy hack i just found online and thought i’d post it to remember how to do it.
with just a few simple clicks, you can dramatically speed up your firefox browser on a high speed connection. this hack makes my intel mac mini blazin’ fast for surfing. well worth a try.
faster firefox hack
– type “about:config” (without quotes) in the address bar of firefox & hit enter
– scroll down to network.http.pipelining
double-click the false so it switches to true
– the next line is network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
double-click the “4″ and enter 20 into the box
– another double-click to switch network.http.proxy.pipelining to true
– now, right-click somewhere and select new -> integer
type nglayout.initialpaint.delay into the box as the preference name
enter 0 as the integer value
*this kills the built in 250 millisecond delay before firefox acts on the data it’s receiving
restart your browser and see if it feels faster. works fantastic for me.

thanks for the tip Dean! Just switched our site to Wortdpress. PHP Nuke was just too much for what we needed.
