Firefox “Speed up” tricks…
This article helps you boost your browser's speed. Try it and get yourself a ride....
I hate to see those dots rotating on the right hand side upper corner whenever I open a web-page. I feel as if they are teasing me to wait long long and longer. But finally this irritation inspired me to discover some hidden and cool tricks to fasten up my Firefox. Let me just share some of them with you. And you must be wondering why the images look different!!! I have Firefox in my new Vista!
Step 1. HTTP PROXY:
A bug that has been located in IPv6- capable DNS servers wherein, an IPv4 address can be returned when an IPv6 was requested. Mozilla can recover the information, albeit delayed.
Step 3. CONTENT NOTIFY INTERVAL:
This identifies the least time to wait between reflows!
Step 4. CONTENT SWITCH THRESHOLD:
It is only when content.interrupt.parsing is set to true that the user can interact with the loading page.
Choose the frequency to control the right time.
Step 5. BROWSER CACHE MEMORY CAPACITY:
A page that is loaded needs to be cached (stored), so that it is not rerendered or redisplayed. Here is the preference that does just that!
