How to Speed Up Mozilla Firefox

    * Mozilla Firefox is one of the best web browsers around. It supports various operating systems like Mac, Windows, and Linux and among others.To fully maximize the potential and basically to improve its speed, you can follow these Firefox tweaks for a speedier browsing experience.

To start, type about:config on the address box of the Firefox. This will prompt you to a confirmation page asking if you really want to continue or not. Once you hit Enter, you will be routed to a list of configurations and we take it from there. This is the most common configuration used regardless of the type of connection you have or the computer's speed.

They are as follows:

Enter "network.http.pipelining" on the filter tab and hit Enter. Double click on network.http.pipelining field and set the value to "true". Double click the next field saying network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and set its value to "8".

Back to the filter tab, type "network.http.proxy.pipelining" and then hot Enter, double click the network.http.proxy.pipelining field to set it to "true".

Right click anywhere on the about:config result and choose new then integer. Type "content.notify.backoffcount" hit OK then set the value to "5".

Type "network.dns.disableIPv6" on the filter tab and must be set also on "true".

Lastly, set the "ui.submenuDelay" to "0". You can find it by right-clicking anywhere on the about:config result and choose new then integer.
