The Mother Board

Wow....it's a lot faster....and I'm on cable.....

Thanks!

hey its kltsin here, just wanted all of you know that you need to uninstall firefox and update to FF1.01 to be much safer using FF as soon as possible!!!

Regarding the piplining 100 or 30 debate, as well as the turbo setting to make it preload to be as fast as IE; I use the 8 on pipelining as I read that more than 8 generally doesn't help, and 8 is what Mozilla themselves recommend:

http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/ ... pipelining

That turbo thing used to be a setting, but is apparently now just a leftover that's not been removed. I would also think that if the turbo did anything it would be on their own tips and tricks page at Mozilla, but it doesn't seem to be. Maybe somebody should search the firefox source for any mention of it.

I saw this page here with some more firefox tweaks. If all of them have been covered in the past 6 pages of this post, sorry

Good call, I hadnt seen that it was removed from the code.

Hope everyone knows FF 1.0.2 has been available since march 24 2005.
Fixes the Gif buffer overflow exploit.

If I had wanted to make the first changes suggested, how would I do it. I can see the list of parameters but no way to make any changes as edit doesn't work. Please enlighten. I did download FF 1.02 but still find it slower than my Opera. I haven't gone through the list on 1.02 but the pipelining is set to false. If I could change this would FF1.02 run faster?

Yes faster, for some much faster depending on pc and connection.

after typing in about:config
use the filter at the top of the page to help find the following
for instance in the filter type in pipe and you will see.
network.http.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
network.http.proxy.pipelining
Right click to edit, from false to true use the right click "TOGGLE"
For numbers use the "modify" option, but dont set maxrequests to high, a good number is 8 as two many bog down a server(you may load faster but others cant because you are requesting to many times, the server may not respond also if you request too much)

Set the value of nglayout.initialpaint.delay to "0" if it is present
if not you can create it.
(Note overall this may slow down how fast a page loads, I mainly use forums so text appears right away and faster for me, after the text loads the browser then starts at the beginning and fills in the images and other objects)
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.)

Holy Crap! batman this is awesome!
I will say it only once i am not worthy...

Here's a question--anytime Mozilla prompts you to download the latest and greatest version, and you go ahead and download it, do you need to reset all the values again?
