By default, Firefox will assume you are not on high speed connection or broadband thus it will use the slowest settings how you reach a web page. However, if you are on broadband or higher internet connection, you can tweak Firefox a bit to fully utilize high speed your connection.
This can be done by enabling network http pipelining. Follow this step.
- Open up Firefox advanced config, type on address bar about:config
- In the filter box, type pipelining so it will only show options in our interest.
- Double click on network.http.pipelining to enable it, see the value on the value column change to true.
- Change network.http.pipelining.maxrequests value to something higher than the default (4). For this setting you really need to change to suit your connection, higher speed connection will benefit with higher value and vice versa, play with it a bit until you get your golden value.
If you want to enable pipelining on proxy, you can change that setting there also. This setting will take effect immediately, you don’t have to restart your browser (this is some of the thing I like about Firefox)
Enjoy your faster browsing ![]()
