Firefox is an excellent and already fast browser. With a little minor "tweaking",
however, you can make Firefox perform up to 40% faster for page
transfers. With just a few clicks and some typing, you can experience
faster browsing and surfing Firefox.
If you are using Internet Explorer … please change to Firefox now. Also if you are using an old version you should upgrade. Download from here.
Here are some steps that will make Firefox Faster and Snappier than before. I’ve used it for quite sometime and it hasn’t given me any issue.
Steps:
1. Open a new tab and type about:config into the Firefox Address Bar and press Enter. Then click on “I’ll be careful, I promise!”
The "Config" file will appear in the Firefox browser as a page with hundreds of lines of code in it. Now, we start by enabling some advanced tabbed options:
2. Locate the line "network.http.pipelining" (tip: press "n" on your keyboard to quick scroll). If it’s false (it's false by default), double-click that line and change it to true.
3. Scroll down to the line that says "network.http.proxy.pipelining" (enabling pipelining in proxy) to true by double-clicking it.
4. Find the line that says "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests". Double click on it, and a dialog box will pop up. Change the setting from "4" to "8".
5. Right-click anywhere inside the page and select New > Integer. Name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set the value to "0″.
