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.
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 (zero). This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.
If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now!
You have to close your browser after you make the changes. When you start it back up they will be in effect.
greatttttttt :)

wait, didnt geestar already post that same exact thing?
and BTW, geestar, no mean to be rude, but i hope this stragegy doesnt chatch on. this technique will have the browser load the site up alot and therefor will quickly kill the sites bandwith, is this true?

i've been using those tweaks since i built this ancient Celeron 466 with a lowly 192MB of ram, and when i'm afterdawning i leave literally about 30 tabs open so i can cross-reference things; no bandwidth concerns here...

I doubt it but I have noticed with every newer version of FireFox some pages take a minute to load, I just think its the programing of FireFox.

i just did the fiefox pipeline settings that geestar suggested.and i noticed a dramatic speed up in page opening.i didnt even close down my browser to have the mod take effect.i had this thread open then began browsing after the adjustments.
so where does someone find out about this kinda stuff?...oh yeah...the same way i found out...the internet of course.but more to the point,what kind of sites?...or is your brain part computer?})

that's twice you've done that now. do it a third and you're gone.

I found this a while back, but don't have a clue from where:
-find the string
browser.turbo.enabled
-double click and change the value to true
I don't really think it makes much of a difference, but it could be useful.
It seems that this option is not there anymore when using v1.5.
