iirc, this is a leftover from seamonkey, and is not used in fx 1.0. turbo mode = quicklaunch = removed for fx.

correct me if i'm wrong.

Why wouldn't they just set it to true in the first place?

Just makes you wonder.

Well judging by this thread. It doesnt seem to help many people. So Maybe it wasnt worth leaving it on?

Avast, 'tis a fine day to be sure.

probably, but do you want to turn something on/off without knowing what it did so that when you try to do something it blows up? no? well then maybe we should judt leave it how it is. it works for me so :P

The program loads faster, at least here.
You can also tweak a lot of settings there, i fixed a "bug" where downloading small files (some kb), the download window didn't close, although it was meant to.

Parameter was :
browser.download.manager.showAlertInterval
I lowered it to 50 (ms) and the download window now disappears correctly, even with small files.


edit : and it was on some french written forum so i didn't post any link to it.

The turbo mode setting does not do anything, the setting has been removed and won't exist in Mozilla 1.8 and Firefox 1.1. (bug 259828)

Quite possibly. You hear of a Turbo mode and automatically think it's made it faster when you open it.
I found out theres no difference after I tryed opening with and without Turbo enabled a few times.
Not noticing anything at that.
