The best tuning for Firefox depends on the global system speed and the network connection speed, so the only way to find it is by attempts.Quote:

Currently I'm using these settings:
I hope they work fine for the most of you! :DCode:network.http.max-connections : 48
network.http.max-connections-per-server : 20
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy : 8
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server : 16
network.http.pipelining : true
network.http.pipelining.firstrequest : true
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests : 8
network.http.proxy.pipelining : true
nglayout.initialpaint.delay : 0
plugin.expose_full_path : true
ui.submenuDelay : 0
browser.cache.memory.capacity : 65536 (means 64MB)
browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl : true // ATTENTION!!!
browser.xul.error_pages.enabled : true
content.interrupt.parsing : true
content.notify.backoffcount : 5
content.notify.interval : 750000
content.notify.ontimer : true
content.switch.threshold : 750000
content.maxtextrun : 8191
content.max.tokenizing.time : 3000000
signed.applets.codebase_principal_support : true
Here is a stopwatch page to check your loading times:
www.numion.com/Stopwatch/index.html
My longest was 2.7 seconds with conans values. I got 2.5 seconds with the
default settings on firefow exrensions network tweaks. I got a slower time
with the power settings. I got 2.2 seconds with the settings of carloc. :)
Happy Holidays
[edit]
I have cable and a 2.1 Celeron processer.
I tested it on www.techzonez.com. I do not know any thumbnail sites.
It sounds good, Veronica! :thumbup:Quote:

There's a new speed tweak extension out, it's called Fasterfox:
https://addons.mozilla.org/extension...fo.php?id=1269Quote:
Quick Description
Performance and network tweaks for Firefox. Fasterfox allows you to tweak many network and rendering settings such as simultaneous connections, pipelining, cache, DNS cache, and initial paint delay. Dynamic speed increases can be obtained with the unique prefetching mechanism, which recycles idle bandwidth by silently loading and caching all of the links on the page you are browsing. A popup blocker for popups initiated by Flash plug-ins is also included.
Thanks Conan, there is a noticeable difference in speed. Does it enable prefetching of pages by default though?
Good find. I'm using it now.
The new tweak is makes FF faster than the old one did, but with both I have trouble with 'site not found' errors. Does this happen to anyone else?
Experiencing that too with the work PC.:( I uninstalled it let's see if things change.Quote:
