For those of you who use Firefox as your web browser of choice, Here's a little tip I came across recently that will help you load pages (such as this one) a whole lot faster.
It's called pipelining and it allows the browser to open up multiple connections when loading a page instead of pulling everything bit by bit single file. Here's how to do it:
Step 1:
In the address bar type "about:config" (without the quotes)
Step 2:
In the filter box type "network.http" (again without quotes)
Step 3:
Find "network.http.pipelining" and "network.http.proxy.pipelining" and double click both to set the value to true.
Step 4:
Find "network.http.pipelining.maxrequest" double click and set the value to something like 30 (for 30 simultaneous connections).
Step 5:
Close and restart the browser for the changes to take affect.
