/* Increase speed of gradual rendered elements
* The function of this setting is associated with the gradual display of rendered elements on a page.
* In practice, a page is not loaded completely at once, but it is loaded gradually. Every time a new element is loaded,
* the page is refreshed, and the default interval for this function is set to 0.12 seconds (in other words, the page displays
* new elements every 0.12 seconds). However, since these redraws will increase the total page load time, you can set a new value
* of 500000(ms), which corresponds to 0.5 sec. ***/

/* Improve the browser’s loading times
* Firefox is configured to apply low frequency mode after 0.75 seconds of user inactivity. Every time the browser goes to
* low frequency mode, it becomes faster at loading pages. Therefore, it is beneficial to reduce the time it takes for FF
* to enter low frequency mode. Thus, a value of 0.25 seconds (250000 ms) should be fine for that purpose.

/* Prevent FF from going offline
* FF manages network connectivity poorly. It's a constant nuisance if your connectivity goes out, even for a second.
* Stalls browsing, can make you think your wifi is down...
* Best to disable unless you need it.

/* 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.

/* 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.

/* Increase the memory capacity in Firefox, in order to load more pages faster
* 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.
* If you notice that it’s not working for you, then revert it to its default value.
