How to speed up Firefox
1. Open up FF click into the Firefox address location bar, and type about:config , press Enter.
2. 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:
3. Locate the line browser.tabs.show Single Window Mode Prefs . (tip: press "b" on your keyboard to quick scroll).
4. Double click on browser.tabs.show Single Window Mode Prefs . This will set its toggle to "true". Now your advanced and enhanced tabbing should be set.
5. Next: we will increase the "pipeline" RAM ability for Firefox to accommodate more packet transfer. In the same config document, scroll down to the line that says network.http.pipe lining . Double click this line to set it to "true".
6. Lastly, we will increase the maximum pipeline requests to 100. Find the line that says network.http.pipe lining.max-requests . Double click on it, and a dialog box will pop up. Change the setting from 4 to 100.
7. No need to save this file. 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! Enjoy!
