Mozilla Optimizer 1.6.3
---
Mozilla Optimizer improves the browsing speed in all browsers based on the
Gecko Rendering Engine (GRE) like Mozilla, Phoenix, Mozilla Firebird and
Mozilla Firefox as well as Netscape 6 and Netscape 7. All optimizations can
be applied manually, this tool simply automates this procedure!
This is achieved by activating HTTP Pipelining so that using a single
connection to the webserver up to 8 files can be requested directly after
each other without of having to wait for the delivery of the last file
requested. Furthermore some settings relevant for the actual page display
are optimized.
Itīs recommendable to use the newest version of your browser which is
available at: http://www.mozilla.org/. Should there arise any problems due to
the optimizations, you can revert them with a single click!
The most recent Mozilla Optimizer version can be found at:
http://www.computerbase.de/downloads/software/browser/mozilla_optimizer/
The site is in German and I don't see a way to Englishify it. But you really don't need to download anything -- just make the following changes in user.js and restart the browser.
Optimizations
---
user_pref("nglayout.initialpaint.delay", 100);
user_pref("content.notify.ontimer", true);
user_pref("content.notify.interval", 100000);
user_pref("content.notify.backoffcount", 5);
user_pref("network.http.pipelining", true);
user_pref("network.http.proxy.pipelining", true);
user_pref("network.http.pipelining.maxrequests", 8);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 32);
user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", 8);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy", 4);
user_pref("network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server", 2);

I had been using a different set of user.js tweaks but this seems to make a noticeable difference in page rendering speed!
