    So first of all you must type about:config in your address bar.
    You will see a search bar where you can type parameters for a search and after that for editing them. If some of above mentioned parameters aren't found with your search bar, you must add them manualy. You can do that by clicking Right MB -> New -> Integer (if it's a number) or Boolean (for True/False). To edit the parameter just double click on the line you want to edit.

    These settings are recomended for those who got FAST PC'S and FAST INTERNET.

    These settings are recomended for those who got FAST PC'S but SLOW INTERNET.

    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server: 4
    nglayout.initialpaint.delay: 0

    These are for SLOW PC'S but FAST INTERNET

    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy: 16
    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server: 8
    dom.disable_window_status_change: True


    And these are for SLOW PC'S and SLOW INTERNET


    content.max.tokenizing.time: 2250000
    content.notify.interval: 750000
    content.notify.ontimer: True
    content.switch.threshold: 750000
    nglayout.initialpaint.delay: 750
    network.http.max-connections: 32
    network.http.max-connections-per-server: 8
    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy: 8
    network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server: 4
    dom.disable_window_status_change: True

    Hope someone will find it useful :)

    P.s.
    Actually for myself i increased parameters even more, and i've got huge difference after editing all lines.

    I will definitely try this out.
    At first I thought this was a way to kill PDog faster.
