{ Make firefox load pages FASTER! }
G O O D F O R S N I P E R S
A guide created by: Yumi

NOTE: This is actually my very first guide, so if you think that something needs
to be improved, feel free to PM me your suggestion.

Hello there fellow NeoCodex user, did you ever want to have a
faster internet to increase the rate of winning auctions,
sniping a pet and sniping an item
?
Or do you just want a fast internet for surfing?
Then you probably stumbled upon the right thread.
I'd like to remind you again, this is only for FIREFOX users.
Using these THREE programs: FireTune, Firefox Ultimate
Optimizer and Mozilla Optimizer, it will increase your
browsing speed!

PASSWORD FOR ALL PROGRAMS:

Spoiler



INTRODUCING:

1. FIRETUNE.
FireTune for Mozilla Firefox was developed for an easy and fast optimization of your browsing experience with Firefox.

It is based on a collection of optimization settings collected and tested by Tweakfactor.

Usually you have to optimize Firefox manually, which can be time consuming and difficult for the novice user. FireTune helps you here - it includes ALL THE PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION. The only thing you must do is: make your selection. FireTune does the work for you
.
Note: Some antivirus and antispyware programs flag FireTune as being infected/malware, although the application is PERFECTLY SAFE AND DOES NOT POSE A THREAT TO YOUR SYSTEM. This is called a 'false positive'. The term false positive is used when antivirus software wrongly classifies an innocuous (inoffensive) file as a virus. The incorrect detection may be due to heuristics or to an incorrect virus signature in a database. [Similar problems can occur with antitrojan or antispyware software.

See the difference?

3. Mozilla Optimizer

This utility really helps Firefox and/or Firebird load much faster and increase the speed of page loads

Mozilla Optimizer is a tool which optimizes Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox and Netscape settings in order to considerably boost page loading. Mozilla Optimizer enables HTTP Pipeling and Keep Alive to keep the TCP overhead low while retrieving the website content. All these changes can be made manually, but this tool makes life a little bit easier.

I don't think this does what it advertises itself to do. It's impossible that 46 MB can be turned into 186 KB (that's a CRAZY compression ratio), especially through a separate program that doesn't have access to Firefox's memory and doesn't even replace the binary.

I knew those images were fake just by looking at them, didn't seem legit at all.

You're entirely right on the second point there, no application can access another application's memory allocation.


Well... sort of. If it was somehow able to run in the OS runtime (impossible) - it would have access to all memory allocations throughout the system. If it had access to this, and Firefox had some kind of horrible garbage collection policy (or was leaking, etc), it could potentially clean up unused objects, etc.

But that's too farfetched to be anywhere near plausible - even accessing another application's memory will cause a crash.

i was excited first as well, especially with the ultimate optimizer, bcz my FF is sometimes getting crazy numbers of mem usage (imo)
but after reading all these posts i'm not so certain anymore ^^ better be safe than sorry

There is a program called faster fox that helps speed with firefox opening and tab switches.

In all likelihood it's probably shifting the load onto virtual RAM to give the appearance of using less memory.

Also I didn't gravedig this so don't blame me

swap? that's even worse.... disk is slow as shit :p

Also, nothing wrong with gravedigging... I've never been sure why that was an issue...
