What does FireTune do?

According to your specific computer speed and internet connection speed, FireTune will optimize several internal settings of Firefox for better performance. FireTune does NOT modify the Firefox executable, or any other Firefox binary file. Everything can be undone easily provided you saved your original profile configuration file with FireTune's profile backup feature.
In most of all cases you'll notice an improved browsing speed after optimizing Firefox with FireTune.
FireTune is available for free.

Older Versions Can be found here in a thread submitted by NitnayLion thanks to him we got the chance to meet this great software right from the begining.
 
I like to manually tinker with the settings, than use an automated utility, I just tried this one out of curiousity.

I found this one option good--->>Make firefox start faster<---

This too can be done manually...
