any firefox users try this?

Firefox is already pretty fast but I tried this after reading about it on the Firefox forums....seemed to speed things up just a little more

Thanks Sii. I'll try it out ASAP. Maxthon's been a whole lot faster than Firefox, but I'd love that to change.

For anyone who's interested, here are a few rendering test sites to time you browser speed.

firefox flys on my P4 laptop

Maxthon is no faster than IE IMO...its just a shell on top of it anyway

OK..I tried this running to two different sites using Stopwatch. I tested both the Slow Computer and Fast Computer settings, since I'm borderline on those. No improvement from my original settings either way. I had done a few manual tweaks to FF last year, so that might be hitting close to what Firetune does anyway. Sweet little program. Hope it helps out a lot of folks.

My Firefox is a ******* memory hog. I've caught it using 100MB sometimes. What gives?

Doesn't run slow though (1GB RAM, Athlon64).

I just installed it. Hornfans loads a lot faster now. The next test is the porn.
