Why IE you are too slow?
-
Hi All, I really love the new IE(7) and it's features. but it's deadly slow when comparing with FF and Opera. Opera has built-in support to set the number of Maximum connections to a server and Total Connection. FF has Fasterfox for performance and network tweaks. Even without the network tweaks Opera and FF have a reasonable speed for uploading/downloading. IE still lacking such a feature. there are some registry tweaks in web for making IE fast. even after using the same, I didnt feel any difference :( Any people know how to make IE faster? SaRath.

MS bashing prevents IE from having that option. The HTTP spec says the agent should not have more than 2 simultaneous connections to one server. Thus IE is following the spec, yet IE gets bashed for being too slow. If MS added the option, they'd get bashed for not following the spec. Other browsers can do it because they're not IE and therefore not evil.

Don't know if this will help. Worked well in I.E. 6.0... http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/536[^]
When I'm joking people take me seriously.

I'm thinking in the case of Firefox here... Firefox has the support (probably just a constant passed to a function) for more than 2 connections so because it's open source you can install extensions which simplify the process of "upgrading" this constant. In otherwords Firefox itself does not support it but extensions which you download, after agreeing to a disclaimer, do allow you to change it fairly easily.
Formula 1 - Short for "F1 Racing" - named after the standard "help" key in Windows, it's a sport where participants desperately search through software help files trying to find actual documentation. It's tedious and somewhat cruel, most matches ending in a draw as no participant is able to find anything helpful. - Shog9 Ed

Why bother with IE at all? FF rulez, and I will not spend my days installing/tweaking/uninstalling silly browsers. Hitchcock said "It is just a movie". I say "It is just a browser". :) _____________________________________ Action without thought is not action Action without emotion is not life -- modified at 6:03 Thursday 20th July, 2006

Try going to: "about:config" and look for: network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server That allows you to change it on a bog standard install of FF 1.5 And for those wanting to change the setting in IE: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/183110/ (I have never tried it, but it looks like it should work) Chris.

IE doesn't care about the specs too much, let's not play games. That is unless you consider W3C having nothing to do with protocols and specs. Also, IE's rendering engine is slower. More simultanious connections won't fix that. Jeremy Falcon

See class, this is a good example of the MS bashing I was talking about.
