1. 
   
   Sau đó, nếu Firefox cho thấy một massage thông báo , nhấn nút
   
   ‘I’ll be careful, I promise!’
2. Type network.http.pipelining into the filter bar to find it under preference name column. Then double click on it to change its value to True to enable HTTP pipelining.
3. Into the filter bar type network.http.proxy.pipelining to find it. Then change its value to True.
4. Then find network.http.pipelining.maxrequests. Right click on it and click Modify. The default value is 4. Change it to 15 as an ideal value.
5. Next make a new integer value (to do this right click on a blank space and click: New –> Integer) name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and press OK. Finally set its value to 0 and click OK.
6. Finally create a Boolean value (to do this right click on a blank space and click: New –> Boolean) name it network.http.pipelining.firstrequest and click OK. Then set its value to True.

Also these are some advanced network settings for broadband user with at least a 2 Mbps (256 kB/s) connection. To use these tips just type about:config into the Firefox address bar and hit Enter. Then find them using the filter bar, next right click on them and select Modify, and change the value and click OK:

• Find network.dnsCacheEntries and change its value to from 20 to 512.
• Find network.dnsCacheExpiration and change its value from 60 to 3600.
• If your ISP doesn’t support IPv6, you can disable it. To do this just find network.dns.disableIPv6 and change it default value to True.
• Find network.http.max-connections and increase maximum number of simultaneous connections to 48 or 96.
• Find network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server and increase maximum persistent connections per server from default 6 to 12
• Find network.http.max-connections-per-server and increase maximum connections per server from default 15 to 24

2. Loading large pages faster
Large and intricate web pages can take a while to download. Although Firefox doesn’t have any delay here but since in default it should shows you what it’s received every 0.12 seconds and this causes to increase loading the web pages. Well, to avoid this:

• Make an integer value (go to about:config screen, right click on a blank space and select: new –> Integer) then name it content.notify.interval and set its value to 500000. (It is five hundred thousand and not fifty hundreds)
• Make a Boolean value (go to about:config screen, right click on a blank space and select: new –> Boolean) then name it content.notify.ontimer and set its value to True.

3. Set Firefox to ignore some interrupts before loading pages
If you haven’t moved your mouse or touched the keyboard for 0.75 seconds then Firefox enters a low frequency interrupt mode, that means its interface becomes less responsive. To reduce the content switch:

• Make another Integer value (go to about:config screen, right click on a blank space and select: new –> Integer). Name it content.switch.threshold click OK and set its value to 250000 (one fourth of a second) then click OK to finish.
• To extend our tip to user interface create another Boolean value (go to about:config screen, right click on a blank space and select: new –> Boolen), name it called content.interrupt.parsing and set its value to False.

4. Set Cache
While you are browsing Firefox stores some scripts and images of the web pages in a local memory cache. And they can be retrieved faster if you open the same page. If you have plenty of Ram:

• Make an Integer value (go to about:config screen, right click on a blank space and select: new –> Integer), name it browser.cache.memory.capacity and set its value to 65536.
• Restart Firefox

5. Disable Delay Time While Installing Add-ons
Every time you want to càia Firefox add-on, you will have to wait for some seconds before the installation starts. To avoid this delay time:

• Type about:config into the Firefox address bar
• Then type security.dialog_enable_delay into the filter bar to find it
• Right click on it and select Modify. Then change the value to 0.

6. Optimize download options
On Firefox go to Tools –> Options –> Main. Then set your Firefox to:

• Close download window automatically
• Choose a folder to save your downloaded files
• Go to privacy tab and turn off download history.

7. Control animations
This would be one of the easiest configuration to limit animated images. Just follow the steps below:

• Type about:config into the Firefox address bar and press Enter.
• Type image.animation_mode into the Filter bar to find it.
• The default value is Normal. Right click on it and select Modify. Then change the default value to None and press Enter to stop all animated images.

8. Use Blank Homepage, Default Theme and Minimal Extensions

• Set your Homepage to about:blank
• Use default theme
• Just càimost-have Firefox extensions
