How to speed up Firefox internet browsing in Ubuntu

Since I have installed Ubuntu 11.04 for my personal usage. I was facing slow internet speed in Firefox. After doing some search I figured out some configuration that helped to get normal browsing experience.

Thanks to UbuntuGeek for these tips.

Open your Firefox and type about:config

And make following changes:

  1. network.http.pipelining > Make it True
  2. network.http.pipelining.maxrequests > Make it 8 or 10
  3. network.http.proxy.pipelining > Make it True
  4. network.dns.disableIPv6 > Make it True
