    Re: How to Optimize Firefox

    Optimize the rendering and loading pages

    1. Create Channel content.notify.backoffcount
    2. Give it a value of "5"

    1. Create Channel ui.submenuDelay
    2. Value "0"

    1. Find the channel plugin.expose_full_path
    2. Move the value to "true"

    Optimize memory usage

    Fastback option that allows caching the last pages visited is very useful for backtracking fast but tends to occupy a lot of memory, attention, if you are handling following the "back" does serve a much more ... (but having said that, the page will still have in history!)

    1. Find the channel browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers
    2. Set the value "0"

    1. Create Channel browser.cache.memory.capacity
    2. Set the value "0"

    And then, restart Firefox to take into account the new settings.

    Increase Firefox Page Transfer Speed Up To 40 Percent

    In this brief tutorial I’m going show you how to easily make Firefox load pages up to 40% faster !

    Firefox, when tweaked in this manner, will render faster than Opera.

    Type about:config
    on the Firefox address bar and hit Enter.

    This will display an alphabetical listing of preferences by name, as well as a search bar at the top.

    Type network.http.pipe on the Filter search bar.

    A narrowed down list will appear showing preferences network.http.pipelining and network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and their current values.

    Double-click on the network.http.pipelining string to change its value to true if not already. [see notes 1 & 2]

    Double-click on the network.http.pipelining.maxrequests string and change the current value in the Enter interger value box to 34 and click ok.

    To enable the turbo feature in Firefox you will need to manually create a preference.

    Right-click anywhere on the page and select New and then Boolean.

    Enter browser.turbo.enabled as the preference name in the New boolean value box and click ok, and then set the value in the Enter Boolean value box to true.

    That’s it, now 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 !
