Firefox 3.5 browser startup slow problem solving

Compared with Google Chrome and IE, in Windows environment, Firefox 3.5 starts very slowly. It is said that Firefox 3.5 grabs files from some temporary folders and is used to calculate random numbers. Therefore, Users can clear these temporary files to speed up Firefox startup.

icech finds two ways to solve the slow startup of Firefox 3.5:

The first is the method of Moonlight blog:

Firefox 3.5 calls a lot of temporary files, including the temporary directory , history directory and recent document directory, Firefox through these temporary files to increase the randomness of random number calculations, but unexpectedly led to performance problems that are too slow to start.

Firefox is developing a patch to solve this problem, but users can also handle it manually, which is to delete related temporary files.

The directory of temporary files includes:

C:\\Documents and Settings\\*user*\\Local Settings\\History

C:\\Documents and Settings\\*user*\\ Local Settings\\Temporary Internet Files

C:\\Documents and Settings\\*user*\\My Recent Documents

C:\\Documents and Settings\\*user*\\Temp\\

Users can also delete the temporary files by clicking "Programs" - "Accessories" - "System Tools" - "Disk Cleanup". (via)

After this operation, you can see that the startup speed of Firefox 3.5 seems to be faster, but compared with Google Chrome and IE, Firefox 3.5 is still the slowest to start, Google Chrome The startup speed is very fast, but because there is no plug-in system, this is not particularly fair.

The second method is a foreign website

It is said that firefox 3.5 starts too slowly because it is too many temporary files generated by ie

1, please do not boot at first In the case of ie, execute the following script

@echo off

del /f/s/q "%USERPROFILE%\\Local Settings\\History\\*"

del /f/s/q "%USERPROFILE%\\Local Settings\\Temporary Internet Files\\*"

del /f/s/q "%USERPROFILE%\\My Recent Documents\\*"

del /f/s/q "%USERPROFILE%\\Temp\\*"

rd /s/q "%USERPROFILE%\\Local Settings\\History\\*"

rd /s/q " %USERPROFILE%\\Local Settings\\Temporary Internet Files\\*"

rd /s/q "%USERPROFILE%\\My Recent Documents\\*"

rd /s/q "%USERPROFILE% \\Temp\\*"

If there is something that can't be deleted, no problem

2, after running, clear the history of IE again, and clear all the things that can be cleared.

(ie8, other similarities) Click Tools in the IE window → Internet Options → General → Browse History → Click Delete

Is it strange? Firefox started slow and related to IE? Because when Firefox 3.5 is launched, Windows version of Firefox v3.5 needs to read Internet Explorer Cache and Windows temporary folder, and also scans all the font files, pain!
