Speed Up Firefox

Written March 5, 2008 and published in Random | 0 Comments

For those of you who I have not told about this. Here is what to do to speed up browsing in Firefox. This will only work on broadband connections.

1. Open a new tab in firefox and type in about:config

2. In filter type pipe and you should have 3 results. Double click the top and the bottom to turn them to ‘true’ set the middle one to 20.

3. Right click anywhere on the list and select new > integer. Name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and give it a value of 0. This sets the initial delay for showing web pages to zero.

4. Right click again anywhere on the list and select new > integer. Name it browser.cache.memory.capacity and give it a value of anything above 8,192. This is the memory that firefox will use in kb so I’ve set mine to 15000 but you can set it as high as you like.

Close and restart firefox and there you go! FASTERFOX!
