iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 10, 2004 I set all the stuff but I couldn't see the last one. I wonder what will happen to me.Before you change the setting, please browse this site. It said that you need to make a new integer named "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set it to "0". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 10, 2004 I dont know how to do that. Explain it to me so I dont have to browse that site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 10, 2004 Right hand click at any place, then select new > integer. Then type nglayout.initialpaint.delay . Lastly set it to zero then closed all firefox. Then open firefox again...Confusing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 13, 2004 No, there is a site which tests the time it takes to load a load of tables...i cant remember where it was, but i used it when i made these tweaks, and the time was about 1/4 the original once id done it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
