351996 2005-05-06 05:32:00 Really? My MOOX M1 (AMD K-6 we're talking about here!) build under 98 loads very quickly. If it's 20 seconds, something is defenitly wrong. Edward (31)
351997 2005-05-06 05:33:00 Opera has always been better than Firefox IMO... :thumbs:

The webpage does run alot smoother and i see that it doesn't use too much ram but opera is still faster at loading up everything. :groan:

351999 2005-05-06 21:43:00 nglayout.initialpaint.delay = 0, plus what tweak network settings extension does.

to add this value to firefox type about:config in the address bar and add the key "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" with a value of 0.

But Firetune does this as well.

352001 2005-05-08 01:44:00 You may have a fast PC already. I use a RAM Drive for the Cache location as well. This may help some as well as specifiying a bigger memory.

I done so many tweaks I am not sure which is the faster hit. A combination of many things I have found on the web
