Ah, well thanks :)

Jack2000:
i can not see any major dif
between network.dns.disableIPv6's true and false settings

Pathos:
If you don't have ipv6 capable hardware I would expect it to fail instantly and therefore not have any affect.

Do you notice how there is a gap between when you enter a url and the page title is shown and another gap before the content is displayed?

The first gap is the time it takes to get a dns reply, retrieve the html and process the html. The second gap is the time it takes to download CSS and javascript files and process any initial java script before rendering the page.

I find a huge reduction in the second gap when javascript is disabled because often offsite files are downloaded/processed by the initial javascript which takes time.

The other day Arts Technica was only displaying half the page because the javascript was stalling.

How?

I was joking, but Opera is an alternative if you get pissed off with Mozilla.
