1.Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

network.http.pipelinin​g network.http.proxy.pip​elining network.http.pipelinin​g.maxrequests

Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set “network.http.pipelini​ng” to “true”

Set “network.http.proxy.pi​pelining” to “true”

Set “network.http.pipelini​ng.maxrequests” to 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint​.delay” and set its value to “0”. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.

browser.turbo.enabled True

Did this a few weeks back when it was announced. You'll notice the speed improvements more on slower connections such as DSL or maybe dialup. I can see only maybe a 2X difference on my cable modem line.
