tried it and it works Here's something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up: 1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries: network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining network.http.pipelining.maxrequests Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading. Double clik to change to true 2. Alter the entries as follows: Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true" Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true" Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once. 3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives. If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now!
I think the problem with this is that some pages don't properly load...I don't know I read that somewhere about this: http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/asa/archives/007164.html never tried it but I just might works..haven't run into any problems yet
Nice! That's a lot faster. I just installed Firefox the other day and had already sworn off IE for good, but this just makes it even easier to never go back.
Its definately faster, but I had some problems on ebay. Missing buttons, long autofill wait, non-renders. Cool overall.
