Make Firefox faster

I’m posting this here so that I can remember how to do it later on if I reinstall Firefox or something. This tweak will make your browsing experience noticeably faster.

In short, you need to change two values in about:confignetwork.http.pipelining should be changed so that its value is true, and network.http.pipelining.maxrequests should be changed so that its value is 10.

I should point out that this is optimised for broadband. It would probably slow things down on dial-up.

PS: For IE users, there is a similar tweak. You need to use regedit, though, if you’re comfortable doing that. There’s a link to a video in the post I linked to.
