Dramatically speed up Firefox
June 8th, 2005
The Firefox registry contains lots of untalked about variables you can modify. Some of the wonderful options like request pipelining and prefetch are turned off by default (with good reason, not all sites support it, but I could careless).
The easiest way to optimize these settings is to download and install

After you install it, close Firefox and re-enter.
1. Go to Tools > Tweak Network Settings
2. Select “Power” if you are on a Broadband connection or faster.
3. Click OK
Observe the dramatic performance improvement as you browse sites like http://apple.com/
Pages will just snap!
