Not one specific site but many cause this. Page does not display anything until it is completely downloaded or nearly so. Pages displays OK, just takes forever to display ANYTHING on a large page. I have disabled all plugins. Also tried some advice playing with these settings, none of which fixes the problem: network.http.keep-alive:true network.http.pipelining:true network.http.max-connections:24 network.http.max-connections-per-server:8 network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server:6 content.notify.backoffcount:-1 content.notifier.ontimer:true

all the above were at defaults or did not exist before trying these fixes. none had any effect on the problem. its not my outdated video driver! as i said, the page eventually renders just fine its just not rendering incrementally on large pages.

the google sketchup blog is a great example. a huge page with large text node and lots of graphics. i sit there looking at a blank page until the whole thing loads. takes forever on dialup. previous versions of firefox i used displayed the page (incompletely) as it was downloading.

Your problems may be caused by making such changes to network.http prefs.
Not all servers like it when you make such changes and if a server doesn't support pipelining then it may slow down the page loading.

So reset all prefs that you've changed to tweak Firefox to the default.

I started with the defaults! I'm trying to fix the defaults! Other people have the same problem and have posted the changes in attempts to fix it! Those fixes did not help me. Defaults give same problem as those changes. The new improved "faster" firefox may be a millisecond faster loading a page for cable and dsl users but those of us on dialup cant use it!

If you are on dialup then you should be even more careful with making such changes because they are meant to utilize unused bandwidth that a broadband connection has but that you do not have on dialup. Firefox usually needs the full main HTML file to be present before rendering starts, so if that file is large then you need to wait longer to see content appear.
