This tutorial was not made by me.
Original Tutorial : http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1299854/posts
Note: This works best on broadband.
1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:
network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.
2. Alter the entries as follows:
Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.
3. Lastly 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 recieves.
If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages MUCH faster now!

This may speed up firefox but it slows the rest of your pc down because its doing 30 things instead of 1....

This was on another site. The exact same guide. Only made a couple months before he posted it. Google "Speeding up Firefox".
