1172202	2011-01-24 15:17:00	I dunnow - I've got Firefox kinda the way I like it right now. With the RAM-Memory leak all solved (is it?) I think it runs pretty good and only requires a reboot to clear it's head every 24 hours or so, then it's right back to being snappy and dressed right again. Chrome, and Chrome Canary are kinda 'OK', but just barely - and 'barely' is the operative there. They look and feel so stark. I know that's all to speed it up and things like that - but I kinda like eye candy too.	SurferJoe46 (51)
1172203	2011-01-25 07:43:00	I like the way that IE 9 and chrome handle dragging the tabs outside the active window, They actually allow you to select that place that the new window will spawn :) If only IE9 had adblock I would switch in a second :(	Fifthdawn (9467)
1172204	2011-01-25 07:51:00	I've heard about a way to speed up browsing with Firefox from my brother, but he didn't elaborate how to do it. I might as well ask him because I also like using Firefox, because of the plug-ins.	johnmeigharl (16178)
1172205	2011-01-25 08:08:00	:clapMoving tabs to form new pages in IE 9. Something new to me, just tried it and it works fine. Could be useful.	Bobh (5192)
1172206	2011-01-25 10:51:00	chrome does it too, but with TRANSPARENCY... that makes it awesome :p	The Error Guy (14052)
1172207	2011-01-26 11:40:00	To answer the guys question on how to speedup FF(even tho he's banned now lol) I wrote this more than 2 years ago - but still relevant I think Pipelining To check yours - open a new FF window and type or copy/paste about:config in the address bar. Now put this in the filter network.http.pipelining does it say "false" If false - this is how to enable pipeling.... OK - double click and it will change to "true" Now, do the same thing for network.http.proxy.pipelining and set it to "true" Right, now we just need to set a couple values... paste the following in the filter network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and when you double click that it will open a popup box. Change the integer value to 30 (press OK) Next - right-click on it - Select "New" -> "Integer"'. There's a small pop-up box to enter the preference name. Paste the following nglayout.initialpaint.delay and press OK In the second popup box, set the value to 0 (number zero) Thats it done	bevy121 (117)
1172208	2011-01-26 18:26:00	Can I get another person to say this above is good or even bad? I went to the 'about:config' and got a warranty warning - I guess from Firefox - and I promised to NOT do anything bad. And why are we gonna tell FF to delay painting the screen?

1172209	2011-01-27 11:52:00	actually the command is telling it NOT to delay the paint at all (value 0 milliseconds) The default with no command added is 250 (these are only for broadband optimizing - not slow connections) There are lots of google returns for "firefox pipelining" (www.computingunleashed.com) etc if you think I'm trying to give "bad" info	bevy121 (117)

I just don't get froggy and just jump at things as much as I used to any more.	SurferJoe46 (51)
