Tax: -4% (+ Friend)	For all Firefox addicted, here's a little trick (that I found brwosing) to accelerate your favorite browser ! 1Ã‚Â° go to profile folder In Windows XP/2000, path is, most times, C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\default.xxx (xxx are random chars) In Linux, it is ~/.mozilla/firefox/default.xxx/ 2Ã‚Â° Create a text file, name it "user.js" and copy-paste the following code : \n user_pref("browser.cache.memory.capacity", 65536); user_pref("browser.cache.disk_cache_ssl", true); user_pref("browser.xul.error_pages.enabled", true); user_pref("content.interrupt.parsing", true); user_pref("content.max.tokenizing.time", 3000000); user_pref("content.maxtextrun", 8191); user_pref("content.notify.backoffcount", 5); user_pref("content.notify.interval", 750000); user_pref("content.notify.ontimer", true); user_pref("content.switch.threshold", 750000); user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 32); user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", ; user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy", ; user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server", 4); user_pref("network.http.pipelining", true); user_pref("network.http.pipelining.maxrequests", ; user_pref("network.http.proxy.pipelining", true); user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 750); user_pref("plugin.expose_full_path", true); user_pref("signed.applets.codebase_principal_support", true); \n 3Ã‚Â° Restart Firefox ! Done. I tested this, and it worked, if you don't see any noticeable change, you can still delete the file. edit: Replace the smilies, it should write 8_) without the underscore, grr, blame the smilies.

Here's another tweak for Firefox, copied from http://texturizer.net/firefox/tips.html Speed up page rendering By default, Firefox doesn't try to render a web page for 250 milliseconds, because it's waiting for data. If you add the code below to your prefs.js file, Firefox immediately tries to render the page, even without complete data. The drawback is on slower machines where doing a "reflow" may actually cause the total page load time to be longer. `// This one makes a huge difference. Last value in milliseconds (default is 250) user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 0);` WOOt, this increased my speed a lot !
