If you use broadband, you can make webpages load even faster in Firefox by using this “pipelining” trick. 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 can speed up page loading.

  • Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit enter.Accept firefox warning.

  • Look for “network.http.keep-alive”. If it’s false, double-click that line and to change it to true.
  • Make sure “network.http.version” is set to “1.1?.
  • Look for “network.http.pipelining”. If it’s false, double-click that line and change it to true.

  • Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to true by double-clicking it.
  • Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to 8 by double-clicking it. This means it will make 8 requests at once. There is no point setting it higher then 8 as it is capped at 8 max. The default value for this setting is 4.
  • Optional: 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 shows you the information it receives. This is particularly helpful on pages with search bars, however, it doesn’t actually make the page load faster.

If anything goes wrong try to reinstall firefox to reset settings.
