Mozilla Pipelining

-----------------------------------

Hey, i just found out a way to make your firefox load pages faster

// Enable http compression: comment this out in case of problems with 1.1
//pref("network.http.accept-encoding" ,"gzip,deflate");

pref("network.http.pipelining"      , true);
pref("network.http.proxy.pipelining", true);
pref("network.http.pipelining.maxrequests", 100);

// Always pipeling the very first request:  this will only work when you are
// absolutely sure the the site or proxy you are browsing to/through support
// pipelining; the default behavior will be that the browser will first make
// a normal, non-pipelined request, then  examine  and remember the responce
// and only the subsequent requests to that site will be pipeline
pref("network.http.pipelining.firstrequest", true);


enable that (comment  pref("network.http.accept-encoding" ,"gzip,deflate"); or if you don't wanna leave it as it is)


do this in:  Mozilla FireFox/defaults/pref/all.js
*remember that code above is already there, you just gatta enable it so just do a 'find, CTRL+F for pipe. Also this is mostly for people who have fast connections

There's a change you can make in mozilla.  If you have a faster connection, you can enable pipelining, which basically means it makes more than one connection to the server and downloads more than one file/image/whatever at the same time.

gah.. You had my hopes so high until the last sentance 

"Also, this is mostly for people who have fast connections"
:cry:

It's like the opposite of income tax.  Your making the fast faster and the slow, well, the same.  :(

If you have quicktime installed, it's the one that uses the flash files... just remove flash from the ones that it's suppose to use *bla*

i had that problem with mozilla, but i don't with firefox. i installed flash around 10 times for mozilla and it still won't work, but i only had to do it once for firefox, which is good.
