How to Speed up Firefox page loading

niceeeeeeeeee work sir

 

Holy Crap dude, Thanks! I was fast before, but now it flies!

 

thanks so much for the tweaks! i cant believe how fast browsing is now!

 

thanks so much...i'm definitely going to have to try this.

 

hey Geestar good job with the info i've been using firefox for about 4 years now i've always loved it,and for awhile it sped things up but a month later after the tweaks i've been noticing my browser is slowing down like my DragRacer deployed a chute behind it what's the deal
I have a Fast Computer and Cable High Speed Internet,I recently Reinstalled Windows due to pesky Viruses I haven't had one in years so I can't be viruses again,any Ideas?

CPU: 2.66GHZ Intel Pentium 4 class D
768Mbs of Ram

 

i'm about to try it! thanks for the tip in advance!!!

 

lol

 

great tip thanks for sharing, now i do not have trouble having to wait for my browser to lad. tch!

 

This is awesome! My firefox has been slow so I am going to try this thanks

 

What will the settings suggested by geestar20 do on a dial-up connection. Yeah I know it sucks but it is all that is available. Thanks.
Probably should have put more thought into original question, sorry. I am also using a proxy server, an accelerator service provided through my ISP. Will changing those settings affect this at all and will any of these changes be included in the official release of Firefox 3?

 

every little bit helps
it won't be by much but it will definitely be a noticeable improvement...
good luck,

Although I went back and edited my original post to provide more detail, I went ahead and made the changes while waiting for a response.(Can always return to default) Anyway I think that I can tell a difference when using dial-up as well, not a "holy crap did you see that" difference but a fairly noticeable one nonetheless. Would still like to know if anyone sees a problem with these changes and using the proxy server as stated in my previous reply. Thanks for the great info.

 

That did the job nicely, much better, thanks for that mate!!!!

 

Good one, just joined this forum today, found this and its great! Cheers.

from everyone's responses sounds like this does work looks like I am going to have to do this

 

This seems to speed up loading of all sites I use EXCEPT BBC sites, which are either much slower or give me a 'Page Load Error'.

does anyone else have this problem???
