Better Firefox Performance

Here's a couple of simple network tweaks for improved performance in Firefox. Type about:config in your address bar and change the following values. The other values left at their default are perfect.


network.http.pipeliningtrue
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server 4

Please note, these two values interact with each other, and reducing the second number from the default of 6 to 4 actually improves performance.
