Hi everybody. I was looking for something on the internet because my Firefox had been running really slow. After foing this, my Firefox is so fast I am having a hard time keeping up with thing.... lol. Anyways, I just thought I would pass this a long & it might help someone else. Follow these instructions all the way, just takes minute & you're on my way!
1. Open Firefox
2. Type "about:config" into address bar and hit return.
Scroll down and look for the following entries :
network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelinig
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
3. Alter the entries as follows :
Set "network.http.pipelining" to " true" (simply double click the entry)
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true" (simply double click the entry)
Set "netwrok.http.pipelining.mazrequest" to some number like 30. This means it
will make 30 requests at once.
Now 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.
4. Close the Firefox
5. Re-open and test for speed
I am no genius on computers but this is very simple, fast and easy. Hope this helps.

Thanks for that. I've noticed that mine has been choking up a bit lately.
