i found this article from www.forevergeek.com
its to make firefox faster when viewing multiple pages since firefox makes it load one page at a time QUOTE Here's something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up: 1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries: network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining network.http.pipelining.maxrequests Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading. 2. Alter the entries as follows: Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true" Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true" Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once. 3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives. If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now! if you dont see any result its cuz every computer is different like every person is different many say they do get faster results, some dont i get a bit faster results |

I do not see what is so great about browsing the internet faster if not all sites are made for the way certain browsers are configured.

QUOTE I do not see what is so great about browsing the internet faster if not all sites are made for the way certain browsers are configured. as default, firefox only allows one site to open at a time with that tweak, you can view mullitple sites at once |

 This extension is better than to change the settings manually because you can easily reset settings to default And it works without any problems  (For me  ) If you installed this extension, then use the "Power Settings"
