We all know that Firefox takes a lot of
Time to load when it is run for the first time. Today I will show you a
simple way to reduce this loading time and thus turn your slow firefox
into fast firefox.
You can slash Firefox’s slow load time
by compressing the DLLs and executables. There are many choices for
compression but I suggest you use UPX which is free, efficient and time
proven.
1. Download UPX from http://upx.sourceforge.net/#download
2. Unzip upx.exe into your Firefox installation folder which is normally C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox.
2. Unzip upx.exe into your Firefox installation folder which is normally C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox.
3. Make sure Firefox is not running then shell to a command prompt in the Firefox installation directory.
4. Type in the following command in a single line and hit return:
for %v in (*.exe *.dll components\*.dll plugins\*.dll) do upx “C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\%v”
5. If on some later occasion you want to
unpack the files, just type in the command above but add the
decompression switch “-d” after “do upx.”
That’s it; enjoy the difference!
