I was just wondering if these features were set the way they were for a reason... I mean the people at firefox probably set these this way because of a possible problem they ran into. Just curious if there was a possible security reason they set this up this way. Just my two cents..
It's not enabled by default because it's only useful if you have a broadband connection. It could actually slow down your browsing if you're using dial-up because it can't handle so many connections at once with such little bandwidth. It also puts more stress on the server you're connecting to.

It can't be 4x faster if your dial-up line maxs out.
This tip works best on broadband connections.

This small hack make the page appear to load faster, but it seems to be just rendering the HTML quickly and then the images (and other content) later.
What it's doing is allowing Firefox to open more connections with a server at one time. It shouldn't change the way the page is rendered.

meh.. i did that on the computer and it is CRAP.. IT slowed my internet moz friggin DOWN.. That little trick is also posted all over the world in nearly every 'young' forum i've been to.
It's actually very useful... if you have a broadband connection. I'm guessing you have dial-up, and you're opening too many connections for your line to handle, so it's actually slowing down.
My internet explorer will not load any pogo games. It says my java is not right. So I have done everything I could to try to fix it. Everyone says the same things. I now have firefox and it is slow. I wanted to go back to my IE but I don't know what else to do. HELP PLEEEEASSSSSEEEE!
You could say that this topic was a reason why this topic is here. So I did some web surfing and
found this awesome website that really gets some good customization to your Firefox browser. Just
a small note that you will be working mostly in the about:config page so just open a new tab and of
course open this topic up or the website that this info is coming from. Sessions QUOTE

ok, here are the steps to make your firefox browser go up to 40 times faster! firstly, in your
address bar, type in about:config once it opens, it should be something not too dissimilar to
this... browse to the entry network.http.pipelining double-click on it next, browse to
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests double-click on it change the integer to 100 double click on
the value network.http.proxy.pipelining once you have found it double-click on
network.dns.disableIPv6 double-click on plugin.expose_full_path right-click on any value ,

While searching some stufff about using two different browsers I came upon this little site that
last some of the best firefox tricks ever (including the pipeline trick) they even got tricks for
lowering ram usage from firefox which is hte best thing ever, because I soak up a lot of RAM from FF
with all the extensions I have. They even got tricks I don't think most people here on the
forums know about either. For the ones I have tested so far they seem to still work on firefox
2.0.0.4 which is a good thing, but I haven't tested them on FireFox 3 yet. I would r....
If you're lured away from Firefox because it lacks IE7's new looks then you can make Firefox
look like Windows Internet Explorer 7. To do this all you need to do is to install the following
extensions and themes: myFirefox theme Firesomething 1.7 extension, hacked for Firefox 2 by
John Haller . (not working? see post #5) Firefox Showcase The myFirefox theme alters the GUI and

This made firefox run about 4 times quicker on my ISDN connection.
1. Type "about:config" in the
adress field.
2. Set the value of network.http.pipelining to "true".
3. Set the value of
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to "100".
4. Set the value of network.http.proxy.pipelining to
"true"
5. Set the value of nglayout.initialpaint.delay to "0"

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.ht....
