Here you can find basic settings that affect the voracity and speed of the program. Optimize Firefox button will allow an instant turn off most volumetric expansion, clean temporary files and regain some of the important settings to their original state. Thus, the user just a few seconds to get rid of bugs and brakes, which are usually collected in the browser with use.
Note also the slider Content Processes. C It can help you set the number of background processes browser. The more, the faster and more comfortable switching between tabs will occur. However, in this case the browser will consume significantly more memory, so the owners of slower computers have a difficult choice.
