Hey rolf.

Do you about the pipelining tweaks and the nglayout delay tweaks in about:config for Firefox?

Those things triple speed for me. Let me know if you do not know about them.
i know about pipelining, but not about nglayout... what am i supposed to do?
Go into about:config, right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set its value to “0″. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.

Try it and tell me about the difference. Big difference for me. Never wait for a page to load.

Yep, it does feel faster.
Thats cool :) thanks.
No problem man.

You can also go to about:config and change the value of layout.spellcheckDefault to 2.

This will mean Firefox will spell anything you write.

Nice tip, very useful! Thanks man :)
I wish I never upgraded to firefox 3.5. The permanent tab bar is annoying!
Hey Marty,

Could you be more specific. Maybe I can find a fix for you.
Well in the old version of firefox the tab bar wasn't there when there was only one tab, now it's there all the time.
about:config -> browser.tabs.autohide -> true
Thanks for that! I wonder why it isn't in the preferences... hmm...

I used Mozilla Firefox for may daily works I agree browser has the fast speed and extensibility, It's a more popular browser in the world and it's provide add one facilities in the browser. It is more efficient and easy to use for every one. So these are the main reason for choose the Mozilla Firefox Browser.
Hahaha, 20 replies with noone even mentioning Internet Explorer =D . As for me, I constantly switch between chrome and firefox. I noticed that many of you know well about FF, so if you can help me out, i'll much appreciate it. heres the thing, when i access facebook or gmail or whatever website that requires logging in on firefox, i always get the login page, even though i click on the Remember Me or Login in Directly check box ! now the good thing is that it stores my password, not having to write it again, but i do have to keep logging everytime. now another thing, facebook doesnt seem to work normally. when flipping through the photos of an album, it keeps on loading, not going to the next page..... plus, when ignoring or accepting a request of any type, it doesnt click !!! help me please =) i dont have any kind of trouble described above with chrome !

oh and btw, i sometimes use safari when my firefox gets "stubborn" on OS X
Opera 10... no question.
I constantly find myself alternating between Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4 under OS X.
I switch to Safari whenever Firefox starts to take too much CPU/RAM.
Yep, same story here. I'd use Firefox 100% of the time if they wrote the damn app in Cocoa. I know they are working on it, but it's taking too much time IMHO.
So, final word for me... I use Firefox with rein skin and tiny menu. Cant stand the default look. under OSX I now use camino because safari is slightly buggy plus camino looks better IMHO.
IE is for losers who don't have a browsing experience... :D
