Firefox Users: possible performance boost

[Arjay]

Stumbled across this link on a another forum. Haven't played around with firefox enough to know if its a noticable performance increase, but it makes sense.

Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.


ehh, boss, won't this be bad for teh tw mang

It does all of it but two things,

nglayout.initialpaint.delay 0

and changing proxy pipelines to 30

Also, Tribalwar loads almost instantaneously for me now.

setting max requests to a high number will piss off some website admins....you might be blocked so be aware.
