There are many reasons for it’s sluggish performance, like storing cache to disk, using slow sqlite databases, frequent disk access by other processes, no DNS cache and like so many of them.

There are many of ways to make it faster and improve page load time. In this tutorial we are going to do this by modifying the firefox about:config configurations, moving all profile data to a tmpfs partition on RAM and moving the cache to RAM instead of hard disk. This guide will work all GNU/Linux Distributions like Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Arch Linux etc. etc.
