This is a quick little Metacafe video that shows you how to speed up web browsing in Firefox (and IE) dramatically in about 30 seconds or less. It worked for me, and I have to say that pages load noticably faster now.

You’ll see in the video step by step instructions, but in case you miss something, here they are written out (for firefox):

1. Type about:config in the address bar of firefox
2. In the “filter” box type “network”
3. doubleclick network.http.pipelining and set it to “true”
4. doubleclick network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and change it from 4 to a higher number like 10

that’s it!!
