Network Tips to Speed Up Firefox


These "windows tips" are about firefox tuning.

In my previous post, I have explained the network tips to speed up firefox.
Now I will give more detailed tips to speed up firefox. Follow the instructions below:
  1. Open firefox, type "about: config" (without the quotes) and press enter. If some parameters are not yet available, you can create it yourself by doing these steps:
    • Boolean parameters: right click on the firefox's window > New > Boolean > give the name > select true or false.
    • Integer parameters: right click on the firefox's window > New> Integer > give the name > give the value.
  2. Add/ change these parameters:
    browser.tabs.showSingleWindowModePrefs = true
    network.http.max-connections = 64
    network.http.max-connections-per-server = 20
    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy = 10
    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server = 4
    network.http.pipelining = true
    network.http.pipelining.maxrequests = 100
    network.http.proxy.pipelining = true
    network.http.request.timeout = 300
    nglayout.initialpaint.delay = 0
    network.http.request.max-start-delay = 0
    network.dns.disableIPv6 = true
  3. Restart your firefox.
Now, you can feel the difference in speed between modified firefox with your default firefox. The computer tips above are very absolutely useful for you who use the old machine. Good luck...
