Hacks to speed up your web surfing

From ConnectedInternet comes a couple tweaks/hacks/tips to make your browsing faster. This might be a tad geeky for most, and there is a plugin for Firefox that makes this tweak for you, but if you’re frustrated with slow page loads, these might help:
Firefox users:
- Open firefox
- type ‘about:config’ in the address bar
- Type ‘network’ in the filter bar
- Double click ‘network.http.pipelining’ and set it to ‘TRUE’
- Double click ‘pipelining.maxrequests’ and change to a higher value like ‘10′
- Close Firefox and your pages should now load faster
Internet Explorer users:
- Go to ‘Start/Run’ and type ‘regedit’
- Select ‘HKEY_CURRENT_USER’
- Expand ‘Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Internet Settings’
- ‘MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server’ and ‘MaxConnectionsPerServer’ indicate the maximum no. of connections per page. Increase the values (DECIMAL) to a higher value, say ‘10′
- Close IE and your pages should now load faster
Now what this is really doing is just telling the browser to make more concurrent connections to a site when visiting. More connections means faster loading. It also means a little more load on that server. I’ve done this on Firefox before and it did help a bit. You can let me know if you think it really helps.
