Quick HOW TO: Increase Firefox’s Page Rendering Speed

December 20, 2005 on 11:33 pm | In HOW TO |

For some, this hack works miracles and decreases page loading time vastly, but for others only a slight difference is noticed: I shall leave the verdict up to you. What this simple tweak does is disable IPv6 support in Firefox, and as the vast majority of the internet still uses IPv4, this will not pose a problem for the near future. Plus, you will get a free speed upgrade!

Go into Firefox and type the following into the address bar: about:config
Then, when the page loads, scroll down to network.dns.disableIPv6, right-click on it and select “Toggle”. Its value will now become “True”.

about:config image

Now visit your favourite websites - you should see a decrease in its loading time.
