Default Firefox Speed Up for Uber fast browsing

Don't know whether this is common knowledge or not but there is an Easy trick to speed up your Browsing whilst using Firefox.

Open Firefox.
Type about:config in the addy bar.
Type network in the Filter box.
Double click network.http.pipelining & set it to TRUE.
Double click pipelining.maxrequests & set value to 10.

Your pages will load Much faster now, Enjoy.

The problem is that some sites do not work well with so many requests.

FF3 is pretty nippy anyway

Setting it any higher than 8 won't do much, it can only do 8 regardless of what you set the number to.

Although, I was under the impression this didn't do a lot since v2.0 anyway.

Well, people have been using it for well over 2 years now, I have at any rate, so if the web was going to break, I suspect it would have done so by now :P
