In case anyone wonders: The about:config is edited by double clicking on an item, and Firefox will then bring up a box for you to enter your value. If you have changed one of these, the line in about:config will be bold. There is a way to hard-code any changes into a master copy for remastering purposes, but if one saves your personal settings, that would do. Also on the pipelining settings: look at the file /greprefs/all.js This section:
Code Sample | // Enable http compression: comment this out in case of problems with 1.1 // NOTE: support for "compress" has been disabled per bug 196406. pref("network.http.accept-encoding" ,"gzip,deflate");
pref("network.http.pipelining" , false); pref("network.http.proxy.pipelining", false);
// Max number of requests in the pipeline pref("network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" , 4); |
--- There you can see the defaults for Firefox 1.01 If the file is edited and placed in the master copy, then that's what you get each time Firefox starts. I suppose they settled on "4" to suit all kinds of network speeds. (Dialup, maybe?) I wonder if changing that to "30" would do fine on broadband. Just some thoughts.
