| Firefox!
The firefox browser has its own default settings which need to be edited to do this. Once done your browsing speed should increase by 300 to 500%.
1. Type 'about:config' in the address slot (doesnt matter if you are offline)
In the menu you get go to network.http.pipelining by default its value is set to false, double click it to get it to say true by enabling this your firefox browser sends multiple requests to a website.
2. In the next line the interger is network.http.pipelining.maxrequests its value by default is 4 double click on it and set the value to somewhere between 20 to 30, this means that your browser would send 20 to 30 requests simultaneously to a website (dont go beyond 30 for the sake of morality- its a website after all and has banwidth monitoring).
3. Some rows below find another integer network.http.proxy.pipelining, it is set to false, double click and set to true.
4. Lastly add a new integer, right click anywhere and select new>integer, preference name would be nglayout.initialpaint.delay set its value to zero, this new integer makes the browser display immediately any information it retrieves from the website the zero indicates the time the browser should wait before acting on the data retrieved from an web address.
And so you are done.Restart Firefox.

Opera!
Opera is already a very fast browser, but if you would have the choice between fast and faster than fast, what would you choose ? Many of the settings can be changed by simply going to Tools > Preferences in Opera but some can only be used by accessing not so obvious ways like ini files.While most tips will work for any users no matter their connection to the Internet some tips might only increase performance for broadband users.
Disable Name Completion and local network lookup
Whenever you enter a single word into the address field Opera will look in your bookmarks for that name and try to find a local network with the name as well. Server Name Completion tries to append prefixes and suffixes to the name automatically. While this feature might be great for some users it uses time and cpu and should be turned of for faster browsing.
Click on Tools > Preferences, select the Advanced Tab and choose Network from the left menu. Click on Server Name Completion and disable Look for local network machine and try name completion, using.
Increase the time cached images are used before checking for new versions
Opera downloads images to its cache to be able to load them faster (from your hard drive) the next time you visit the website. By default Opera checks every 5 hours if a new version of that image has appeared on the website. If you increase this time you increase your overall performance.
Go to Tools > Preferences and click on the Advanced Tab. Choose History from the left menu and select Every 24 hours or even every week for image checks. You can always refresh the cache manually by typing F5 while visiting the website. |
