There are a whole bunch of things you can do with configuring Firefox

In your browser, do an about:config

There are an interminable list of settings for you to play with. Double-click on a setting to change it. I direct your attention to the setting called:
   browser.turbo.enabled
Set this to TRUE.


If it says "turbo" it must be good right? :-) According to this page:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_About:config_Entries#Browser..2A

this entry was deprecated (and had nothing to do with render times even
when it wasn't).


These also look interesting. Check your values for these:
  network.http.pipelining = TRUE
  network.http.pipelining.maxrequests =  20
  network.http.proxy.pipelining = TRUE


Thanks, I've tuned these already. My download times are fine -- its the
render time that is killing me.

Cheers,
Raman


I get subsecond rendering times in elinks <grin>. Of course the page is not so attractive.

Linux Firefox 1.06  13.75 seconds.
Linux Konq           7.34 seconds.

Konqueror is definitely improving.

John
