type “about:config” in the address bar of your firefox

nglayout.initialpaint.delay = 0 integer
content.notify.interval = 500000
content.notify.ontimer = true Boolean value
content.max.tokenizing.time = 1500000
(default value: triple the value ofcontent.notify.interval)

content.interrupt.parsing = true
content.switch.threshold = 500000 integer (default:750000)
content.maxtextrun : 8191
content.notify.backoffcount : 5
browser.search.openintab = true Boolean value

layout.word_select.eat_space_to_next_word = false Boolean value

network.http.max-connections = 48 integer (default:30)
network.http.max-connections-per-server = 16 integer (default:15)
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server = 8 integer (default:6)
network.http.request.max-start-delay = 0 integer (default:10)
network.http.pipelining = true Boolean value (default:false)
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests = 8 integer (default:4)

network.prefetch-next = false Boolean value (default:true)
browser.cache.memory.enable = true Boolean value
browser.cache.memory.capacity = 1 GB RAM – 18432
2 GB RAM – 24576
4 GB RAM – 30720

browser.sessionhistory.max_entries = 5 (default:50)
browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers = 0 (zero) to disable session history.
This will reduce your Ram consumption by a 50%.
(default:-1)
config.trim_on_minimize = true Boolean value
signed.applets.codebase_principal_support : true (default:false)
plugin.expose_full_path : true (default:false)
ui.submenuDelay = 0 (zero)

hi interesting research , iv not tested the methods but have found
some additional
considerations ( mainly for booting/runing from flash / ssd os + firefox )

http://www.linuxfoun...lwf/filesystems

Flash brings a different set of constraints; data layout is less important (flash devices provide random access), but a flash-based filesystem must deal with large erase blocks, wear leveling, and other device-specific issues. For this reason, running traditional filesystems on flash-based devices is not the best solution;

*

[^ problem ; need/want to browse web , dont need/want to brake flash \ ssd

http://wiki.archlinu...fox_using_tmpfs
http://wiki.archlinu...he_cache_to_RAM

Benefits include, among others:

* reduced disk read/writes (ideal for SSD)
* heightened responsive feel
* many operations within Firefox, such as quick search and history queries, are nearly instantaneous


[^ solution ; use ram to store cache , or dump the profileDir to ram
