// PREF: Activate Webrender, Firefox's new rendering engine!
// Greatly increases Firefox's rendering capabilities.
// [NOTE] Webrender is still under development.
// [BUG] Occasionally gives you "judder scroll" on sites with a lot of images. But the tradeoff is worth it.

user_pref("dom.image-lazy-loading.enabled", true);
// PREF: Paint visuals on the webpage as fast as possible
// Lower values will make a page initially display more quickly, but will make the page take longer to finish rendering.
// Higher values will have the opposite effect (i.e. page initially displays slower, but less time is spent watching it render)

// PREF: Increase active connections
// According to the default value, there will be 6 active connections kept for future requests to a server.
// If, at some point, more connections are needed, a delay will occur until there is a slot available.
// To avoid any idle periods, we can set more alive connections, thus forcing the browser to load several elements of a website.

// PREF: Increase communication channels
// Perform this change in order to open communication channels with the server, and consequently load several elements of the website.
// Increased browser speed shall be mainly observed in pages that contain data such as images and videos, which slow down loading times.
// The range of value for this setting goes from 1 to 65535. However, it is rather unreasonable to increase it to the maximum
// allowed value, and subsequently strain the system, so give it a try with a value of 1500.

// If you enter a high value, but you don’t have a lot of RAM in your computer (e.g. 2GB),
// then you’ll just decrease the overall system speed. So pick wisely, and test the browser
// (and overall system) performance before leaving this value changed permanently.
// NOTE: If you notice that it’s not working for you, then revert it to its default value.

// It can make you think your wifi is down, etc. Best to disable unless you need it.
