It doesnt say where,what or how to do the bit titled “Some more Tweaks”

Enable the spellchecker for inputfields and textareas (default is textareas only)

layout.spellcheckDefault=2

Open lastfm://-links directly in amarok

network.protocol-handler.app.lastfm=amarok
network.protocol-handler.external.lastfm=true

-------------------------------------------
Could u please let me know how to do this bit and if its important to the desired effect of the process!!!

Thankyou.

I just discovered this page - it looks very useful and very clearly laid out.

But I’m running FF7 on Ubuntu 11.04 and this page is dated January 2007. Are these tips still valid?

I used all the tips provided above with FF6, including the browser.cache.memory and it made a world of difference. I was just about to give up on Firefox because of the speed. Thanks for the tips.

dont use the browser.cache.memory.capacity tip. it really slows down firefox (at least on version 3.6) if you have multiple tabs open and are trying to browse images, 75% of the time firefox will just hang with the loading circle spinning, and never do anything.

Will these changes increase upload speed also? If no, is there a way to?
