Question to lxskllr and the Firefox pros

[Berryracer]

What do you think of this tweak? would it benefit me (I have an SSD) or is it just a gimmick?

What do you think of the value of 250 MB for the RAM cache size? good or need to be changed?

thanks

A) Open Firefox and in the address bar type about:config and hit enter.
B) Click I'll be careful, I promise! Navigate to browser.cache.disk.enable and then double click to so that it is set to false.
C) Right click on the web page and choose New then String. In the Preference name box add cache.memory.capacity and hit OK. Under cache.memory.capacity, enter in the amount of RAM you would like to use in kilobytes. I use 250mb so you would enter 250000 in the box for that.

It might help a small amount. If you have ram to spare, it can't hurt, but I doubt you'd notice a difference in performance.

It looks like those directions aren't exactly correct. See this page for proper wording of the variables(should be browser.cache.memory.capacity)

Given this:

ASUS G75VW-T1086V
CPU: i7-3610QM 2.30/3.30 GHz.
Memory: 16 GB DDR3 1600 Mhz. RAM
Storage: 512 GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD + 1 TB Seagate Momentus 5400RPM HDD
Graphics: GeForce GTX 670M 3GB
OS: Windows 7 Professional (x64)

Looking for the kind of tweaks that you are looking for it is "silly: at best.

If you have a second computer that runs Pentium III with 256MB RAM and S3 Video you might need some "tricks" (and a lot of praying). - :hmm:
