FireFox light speed

[*TraPStaR*]

OK so being tired of trying all the complicated steps to speed up firefox.

I found one that works in under 5 easy steps I've tested on three computers and each had a different connection to the Internet.

One being dsl which was hella slow but this proved to work even with it so here goes .

1. Once you've loaded up firefox go to the address bar and type: about:config

2. Right click and select: New @~> Integer

3. Name the integer: nglayout.initialpaint.delay

4. Change the integers value to: 0

hope you like ive been posting my @$$ off lately

Hey, Just a quick question, what does this exactly do to Firefox? what does it bypass or w/e? because it did speed it up, and I'm just cautious, i don't want anything to happen to my computer, or something...., i guess

your setting it to load without waiting for like 10 seconds or so
but what i mean is regular firefox is set to like 10 seconds and it loads the full page with everything there pics/sound/widgets/ect
this setting is more for forums that have near low to no pics/sounds/widgets and stuff so the values set to 0 means it loads right away

and if its not working reload firefox and try it again sometimes when updates happen and stuff it resets it or it doesnt take effect right away some people it effects right away some have to restart and some go to the wrong pages to test it what i suggest open mmowend in Internet explore then in you firefox then you see the difference

ahh and if you use a proxy it will slow it down to just disable the proxy to test it :P
