double firefox speed

Firefox is in my opinion the best browser ever made until now. It includes:

improved tabbed browsing
pop up blocking
integrated Goggle search
enhanced privacy controls
built-in phishing protection
online spell checking
lots of themes, interfaces, and extensions/addons

Mozilla Firefox officially supports:

Microsoft Windows
Linux
Mac OS X

Unofficial Support:

Free BSD
OS/2
Solaris
SkyOS
BeOS
XP Professional x64 Edition

Now here are some Tips Tricks that can help you double the speed of Firefox.

Type about:config in the address bar and then press Enter.
In the filter search bar type network.http.pipelining. Be sure the value field is set true,if not double-click to set true. HTTP is the application-layer protocol that most web pages are transferred with. In HTTP 1.1, multiple requests can be sent before any responses are received. This is known as pipelining. Pipelining reduces page loading times, but not all servers support it.
Go back to the filter search bar and type network.http.pipelining.maxrequests. Double-click this option and set its value to 8.
In the filter search bar and type network.http.proxy.pipelining. Once opened doubleclick on it and set it to true.
In IPv6-capable DNS servers, an IPv4 address may be returned when an IPv6 address is requested. It is possible for Mozilla to recover from this misinformation, but a significant delay is introduced.
Type network.dns.disableIPv6 in the filter search bar and set this option to true by double clicking on it.
CONTENT INTERRUPT PARSING
This preference controls if the application will interrupt parsing a page to respond to UI events. It does not exist by default. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window, select New and then Boolean from the pop-up menu. Then:
* Enter content.interrupt.parsing in the New boolean value pop-up window and click OK
* When prompted to choose the value for the new boolean, select true and click OK.
Rather than wait until a page has completely downloaded to display it to the user, Mozilla applications will regularly render what has been received to that point. This option controls the maximum amount of time the application will be unresponsive while rendering pages. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window, select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter content.max.tokenizing.time in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 2250000 and click OK.
CONTENT NOTIFY INTERVAL
This option sets the minimum amount of time to wait between reflows. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window, select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Type content.notify.interval in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 750000 and click OK.
CONTENT NOTIFY ONTIMER
A. This option sets if to reflow pages at an interval any higher than that specified by content.notify.interval. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Boolean from the pop-up menu.
B. Type content.notify.ontimer in the New boolean value pop-up window and click OK.
C. You will be prompted to choose the value for the new boolean. Select true and click OK.
Notify Backoffcount
This option controls the maximum number of times the content will do timer-based reflows. After this number has been reached, the page will only reflow once it is finished downloading. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter content.notify.backoffcount in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 5 and click OK.
CONTENT SWITCH THRESHOLD
You can interact with a loading page when content.interrupt.parsing is set to true. When a page is loading, the application has two modes: a high frequency interrupt mode and a low frequency interrupt mode. The first one interrupts the parser more frequently to allow for greater UI responsiveness during page load. The low frequency interrupt mode interrupts the parser less frequently to allow for quicker page load. The application enters high frequency interrupt mode when you move the mouse or type on the keyboard and switch back to low frequency mode when you had no activity for a certain amount of time. This preference controls that amount of time. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter content.switch.threshold in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 750000 and click OK.
NGLAYOUT INITIALPAINT DELAY
Mozilla applications render web pages incrementally, they display what’s been received of a page before the entire page has been downloaded. Since the start of a web page normally doesn’t have much useful information to display, Mozilla applications will wait a short interval before first rendering a page. This preference controls that interval. Rightclick (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter nglayout.initialpaint.delay in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 0 and click OK.

Remember to Close and ReStart Firefox for the New Settings to take effect

You can also get the Fasterfox extension for performance and network tweaks from: download here

We all know that Vista's drivers suck. We also know that there is a bunch of bloatware on deck. However, with the right tools... You CAN make Vista run as smoothly... eh' hem.. better than XP

To start....

Go to Start--->Control Panel-->Programs & Features-->Uninstall all the programs that they have "thrown" at you. Programs such as "online offers" or programs with your computer manufacturer's name plastered all over it are 99% of the time JUNK.

Go to your computer's website and get all the updates (bios, hardware, drivers, etc)

Go to Windows update and update all of the software there...

Next, some of these are up to your personal preference. I will explain how to disable things such as UAC (User Account Control), which IMHO is a major pain in the ass.

To disable UAC (User Account Control):

Hold the Windows logo button and R together. Type in MSCONFIG and hit enter.

Click on the Tools tab. Scroll down till you find "Disable UAC" Click on that line. and press Launch. Restart the computer at this point since it will make everything else go faster.

To disable some unused programs:

Windows key + R and type in services.msc... hit enter

Right click on the following. Select STOP. Right click again... select properties and change the startup to Disabled.

- Computer browser (if not connected to LAN)
- Fax (if not using printer and fax)
- Windows Error Reporting Service
- Secondary logon
- Tablet PC Input service
- Print spooler (if not using printer and fax)
- Security center
- Routing and remote access (if not connected to LAN)
- Internet connection sharing
- TCP/IP NetBios helper
- Server (if not sharing resources through LAN)
- Offline files
- Distributed Link Tracking Client
- IKE and AuthIP IP Keying Modules
- Remote Registry

Close the services management console.

Disable System Restore:

Another big time hog of memory. Some might not want to do this. This program allows you to bring your computer back to a state in which it worked if you mess something up.

1. Control panel-> System and maintenance-> System
2. Advanced system settings
3. System protection tab
4. Uncheck all the drives.
5. Apply changes.

Disable some (or all UI effects):

Again... this is up to you what all you uncheck. I have listed some of the bigger memory hogs here... you may disable all of them, the ones I listed... whichever..

1. Control panel-> System
2. Advanced system settings
3. Advanced tab/Performance/Settings
4. Uncheck the following boxes:
- Fade or slide menus into view
- Fade or slide tooltips into view
- show shadows under menus
- Show translucent selection rectangle
- Slide open combo boxes
- Use a background image for each folder type

Again.. you can do more or less depending on how much performance you want to gain.
5. Apply changes.

Bring those annoyingly large icons back to a nice size
The icons on Vista's desktop are HUGE... I hated it... To change em back

Right click on the desktop, choose VIEW and choose Classic Icons

Disable options in folders
1. Open an explorer window. hit the ALT key to make the classic menu appear. Select tools and then folder options.
2. Select the view tab.
3. Uncheck the following boxes:
- display file icon on thumbnails
- display simple folder view in navigation pane
- use sharing wizard
- show encrypted or compressed NTFS files in color
- show pop-up description for folder and desktop items
4. Apply changes.

If you like the classic menus... click on the general tab now and select Classic Menus

Get rid of the Security Center
The security center is a very annoying feature with a built in pop up. If you're not a complete moron and can remember to install anti-virus software without Windows telling you..
- Windows Key + R again.. type in cmd and hit enter
- Type cd\
- Type cd windows\system32
- Run these commands
a. takeown /f wscapi.dll
b. takeown /f wscsvc.dll
c. takeown /f wscui.cpl
This has given you ownership of the three files. Enter the System32 directory via Windows Explorer and right click each of these three files. Go to the Properties/Security Tab and edit/add an entry for everyone and give them all full access. (tick all the squares). Rename these three files with a BAK extension. In Start/Run type services.msc and disable the Security Center Service.
Now reboot and the OS is all yours.

Windows Defender is redundant in my opinion.. to disable it...
- Windows key + R
- Type in MSConfig and hit enter
- Scroll down to Windows Defender (might not show the entire name... will be towards the bottom though)
- Uncheck the box and hit apply.

Reboot and then check the box that asks if you want to be warned about System Config changes.

And this next tweak is especially for the gamers using VISTA
Right click on your game... select properties...click on the compatibility tab...

Click Disable desktop composition radio box. This will shut down a lot of "Aero" while running this app. Once you close your game, all will be back to normal. Good for freeing up RAM

Resize Partition

In Windows Vista it is now possible to resize partitions
without any data loss in the new Disk Management console.

Resizing Partitions with Windows Vista:

1) Click on the Start Button and right click on Computer and select Manage.
2) Expand the Storage section and select Disk Management.
3) Then just right click on any partition
and select either Expand or Shrink to change the size of the partition.

This will allow you to safely resize your partitions without any data loss.

Increase network performance when playing media

Windows Vista throttles your network bandwidth when you are playing any multimedia file such as an MP3 or a video. This was designed to ensure the CPU has enough free cycles available to play your media without skipping. The down side is that when you are playing a multimedia file you will notice that your network speed of file transfers will decrease on high speed network connections. By default when you are playing a multimedia file your network transfers are limited to 10 packets per millisecond.

In Windows Vista SP1 Microsoft introduces a registry key that allows you to customize this setting.

1) [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile]
2) NetworkThrottlingIndexValue

You can set NetworkThrottlingIndexValue between 1 and 70. If you want to disable set the hexadecimal value to FFFFFFFF.

Microsoft warns that if you increase the value above 10 you may experience playback quality issues. Depending on your network setup, it is worth experimenting.

After making any changes a restart is needed.

Check the Processor -CPU

The central processor unit (CPU) is the component that's responsible for processing the information and commands between the different components that make up your PC, which basically makes it the brain of your PC.

Here's how to check your processor information in Windows XP:

Open the Start menu and click on Control Panel
When in Category View, click the Performance and Maintenance category.

If in Classic View, simply double-click on the System icon and proceed to step 4.
Click on the System icon.
Refer to the Computer section, as shown in picture..

Processor and memory configurations are shown in System Properties

A - CPU type and speed are shown here, as well as total RAM

Easy Tip: You can get to the System (and processor) details even quicker if you have the My Computer icon displayed on your desktop: Simply right-click the icon and select Properties.
