I test drove this, and it works well, I’ve had no problems with the operation of firefox since. So don’t just take my word for it, configure firefox yourself.

Step 1:
In your location bar, type about:config

Step 2:
In the filter bar type network.http.pipelining
Change the boolean value to become ‘TRUE’

Step 3:
In the filter bar again and type network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
Change the value field from 4 to 8.

Step 4:
Go to the filter bar again and type network.http.proxy.pipelining
Change the boolean value to become ‘TRUE’

Step 5:
Go to the filter bar again and type network.dns.disableIPv6
Again, change the boolean value to become ‘TRUE’

Step 6:
Go to the filter bar again and type plugin.expose_full_path
Once again, we can change this value to become ‘TRUE’

Step 7:
Let’s create a new preference name
Right click > new > integer
The preference name will be nglayout.initialpaint.delay
The value for this preference will be 0

Step 8:
Create another preference name
Right click > new > integer
The preference name will be content.notify.backoffcount
The value for this preference will be 5

Step 9:
Create one mroe preference name
Right click > new > integer
The preference name will be ui.submenuDelay
The value for this preference will be 0

That’s it. Close firefox, and then restart it. Firefox will now operate faster (page load times!), you’ll be surprised.
