Can't increase FF browser cache

Trying to get tabs to load faster. Told to increase browser cache. Found that in Options 'Cached Web Content' but it won't let me increase size above it's 1024 MB.
Anyone able to tell me why not? How to increase size??
Thanks,

That is the built in maximum cache size in Firefox, it can't go higher. You should honestly look at other things to increase performance, as a larger cache isn't really going to help.
Some things you can try:
Updating plugins, https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/
Update your Graphics Driver [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Update Windows
Uninstall unneeded or unwanted add-ons [[Disable or remove Add-ons]]

How can I increase my Library Cache Hit Ratio?

I was wondering if anyone can help me out regarding the values that I am getting for my Library Cache hits stats
Half of the samples that I have taken on a periodic interval today have ranged from 89% to 96%.
The SQL that I have used is,
SELECT
sysdate,
SUM(PINS-RELOADS)/SUM(PINS)*100
from v\$librarycache
Also, Running the AWR report for 4am to 4pm, see below
Shared Pool Statistics AWR report
                    Begin      End
Memory Usage %:           50.83      42.43
% SQL with executions>1:      55.56      77.13
% Memory for SQL w/exec>1:      74.12
Regarding the current SGA settings,
SQL> show parameter sga_target;
NAME TYPE VALUE
sga_target big integer 1184M
SQL>
SQL> select pool,name,bytes/1048576 "Size in MB" from v$sgastat where name = 'free memory';
POOL NAME Size in MB
shared pool free memory 135.742641
large pool free memory 15.9389648
java pool free memory 16
The main questions are,
a) is the low Library cache hit ration particularly low?
b) if I want to improve this figure, it is advised that the 'SHARED_POOL_SIZE' parameter should be increased.
Obviously Oracle itself is in charge of this at present, so what can I do to improve?
c) Are there any really good links to help me to understand the figures that appear in the AWR report.

a) is the low Library cache hit ration particularly low?
I didnt understand this.Can you please rephrase?
b)
Well indeed that shared pool controls the allocation and everything about Library Cache but it doesnt mean that increasing the value will stop all the issues.Its among the hardest parameters to be tuned infact for the reason that what primarly comes into it,sql statements,code and all that,that is not written entirely by a dba/tuner.Its by developers who does some times not so good things that are required to make shared pool work properly.Very commonly occuring mistake can be quoted as the lack of use of bind variabls and constant use of literals.In that case,eventualy we will have a hard parse of all the statements which will eat up the shared pool some time or the other.No matter what size it may be,it will end to the same result.Hit ratio is a guiding factor,not the end goal of tuning.Its been documented so many places,here,other forums,even in OU books also that looking and tuning alone the hit ratio may not end up at the expected or right results.You should look for the Parse statistics in the AWR report how they are working.How many are Parse(hard),Parse(total) statistics coming up?What is the sql execute to parse time,elapsed time and the related statistics.They will be helpful in getting things sorted out more nicely and correctly.
I am sure I have missed so much than I said.Surely you will get more better advice on this.Have patience and wait.
b)Documentation will be a good point.Performance tuning in that is a good resource.

How can I increase the browser default font size?

When clicking on 'tools' to got to 'options,' there is no 'option' to be found. Hence, I cannot go to tools to options to content to fonts and colors, and cannot change the default size of the browser. All documents I want to print from a website have the small font size.

Changing the font size or color on the screen/monitor
*does NOT affect the print size
*can cause problems in displaying websites on the screen/monitor
*See - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/settings-fonts-languages-pop-ups-javascript (it says near the top '''''"The Content panel contains options related to how websites are <u>displayed</u>."''''')
Print font size is determined on the Print display
*You can un-check "Shrink to fit" and then set your percentage, if you choose, but text may run off the right side of the printed page.
*For Printing problems see -

How can I use the browser cache to view videos

There are times I want to record a video I'm watching, but there is no recording software available that will record from the source I'm using. ie. a video streamed from PBS, or another network like NBC. In doing some research, I ran across a statement that basically said that the video is stored in the cache, and will remain there until emptied. If so, how can I recover it??

Thanx, I checked it out. It may work well, but didn't for me. However, by accident, I see that Myxa, a Firefox add on thingy can do roughly the same thing. I'll mess with it when I've the time. I was trying to find a way to save videos I've watched on places like Amazon or Hulu, because there is no downloader that works on sites like them.

I can't reset the browser.cache.frecency_experiment setting

I tried pretty much everything from
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-fix-preferences-wont-save
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Everything involving prefs.js and user.js. Obviously I'm not interested in reseting my Firefox completely. My system is clean according to Comodo CCE, MBAM and adwcleaner.
Anyway, when I'm resetting the setting in about:config it keeps resetting to user set 4 OR 3. I recall I've set it manually to some value months ago.

Hello effgo, any luck if you change the value to '''-1''' ? (no experiment)

Can't get browser.cache.disk.parent_directory to work

I've tried to use the browser.cache.disk.parent_directory method to move my disk cache, but this isn't working.
Details:
I did a clean install of Firefox 22 on Vista, and then, following instructions, went into about:config, created the browser.cache.disk.parent_directory key, and gave it the value of a directory I had created.
I then visited many different sites (no, not in private browsing mode), and noticed nothing was being saved there. In fact, the new directory is absolutely empty (no hidden folders either).
Looking at about:cache, I am informed:
Offline cache device
Number of entries: 0
Maximum storage size: 512000 KiB
Storage in use: 0 KiB
Cache Directory: C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\XXX.default\OfflineCache
And yes, browser.cache.disk.enable is set to true.
This is true regardless of whether I am using my admin account with no extensions or my standard user account with several extensions.
Advice?

the-edmeister, I carefully read the material in your link before making the changes, and then again before posting this question, and yet again now. I hate to be snide, but can you point out what there is in this link that addresses my question? (And yes, browser.cache.disk.capacity is obviously set to a positive value.)
If it helps, I'm attaching a screencap from about:config.

I can't increase the hieght of my Songs tab Column Browser window

I can't increase the size of my "Songs" tab's Column Browser. Shortly after the 11 update (god, I really hate that the Browser is no longer a column between the sidebar and song window anymore... but I digress), I was adjusting the height of that window and got it down to showing just 2.5 rows, but then the resize icon disappeared and never came back.
I've tried CTRL-SHFT-B. And selecting all and none of the field options.
I've hid and shown the Sidebar.
I've maximized and minimized the iTunes window. But, it only shows 2 & 1/2 half rows of info. Kinda not awesome.
I haven't seen anyone else with this problem, and I keep thinking it will just be fixed when I install the upgrade, but it never does! I even just completely uninstalled all the Apple products (itunes, bonjour, etc) because I was having install errors (the R6034 C++ runtime error) and I just reinstalled 11.1.4.62.
But, I CAN adjust the height in a new PLAYLIST. …. … UNTIL I shrink it as small as it goes then the resize height icon disappears again! ***? As long as I show all 3 rows, I can get the resize icon back. But if it goes to 2.5 lines, once I release the left mouse button… it’s gone! and I can no longer resize the height of the Column Browswer window!
Any ideas?? Is there some sort of lock that I triggered?
Thanks.

b noir? You seem like a man in-the-know. Any ideas??

Increase lyfecyle applet cache on java runtime

Hi .
Applet in IE6 on windows XP SP1, with java 15.0_09.
I launch 3 times the applet with the same codebase.
I launch the applet on first time on i go to a transaction after i launch in the same IE window the applet for the second time and i go in another transaction. I return in the first applet, that reload it in the first transaction when i do the same action on second applet i return in the second transaction. I this point there is no problem ...
But when i launch the applet on third time and i go to another transaction, i lost the context of my first applet when i come back in.
On tracing i can see that java use a "lifecycle applet cache", and this cache have 2 slots, that the reason that i lost the first applet context on the third launch.
My question i how can i increase the number of slots on "lifecycle applet cache" ?

Unfortunately, this did not resolve the issue. I have been doing a bit more looking and it appears I'm getting a null resource error on reload/refresh:
public abstract class SimpleWindow extends JInternalFram
   public SimpleWindow()
      initComponents();
public class FancyWindow extends SimpleWindow
   public FancyWindow()
      initComponents();
}During startup, it tries to create a new FancyWindow, which calls initComponents(). Inside initComponents is a call to create a JEditorPane.
The function runs fine, and I am able to create a new JEditorPane; however, when I do:
jedit.setText("Text Here");I get my null error (tracing through the calls, it looks like it's unable to initialize the editorkit.
This does not happen on a normal first-time load. It does not happen if I completely close the browser and restart it to re-run the applet, but if I just try to refresh it, it seemingly can't get memory for this?
Edit: It looks like this may be a regression in 1.6.0_22 and later: 1.6.0_22 HTMLEditorKit throws NullPointerException when reloaded

Change browser cache size on BlackBerry Z10

I love Z10 browser that support flash.
But I can't find setting to modify browser cache size.
On the Device monitor>storage, i see that browser use space only 124MB, maybe the cache is 120MB.
Currently I need cache size around 1GB to play a game.
Is there a way to increase the browser disk cache size?

Behavior of OBIEE in using cache is (both in 10g as well as 11g),
When you select a specific dashboard or analysis, Presentation Services checks its cache to determine if the identical results have recently been requested.
If so, Presentation Services returns the most recent results, thereby avoiding unnecessary processing by the Oracle BI Server and the back-end database. If not, the analysis is issued to the Oracle BI Server for processing.
If the Oracle BI Server has cached results that can satisfy your request, the resutls are returned from that cache. If not, Oracle BI Server issues the request to the back-end database.
There are some ways to bypass Oracle BI Presentation Services cache but you cannot force your request past the Oracle BI Server's cache.
So, you need to clear both the caches to get the updated data.
Thanks,
PP

Session state and browser cache - Back button problem

Hi all,
I have a problem (and unless I'm missing something I think we all do) with session state and use of the browser's Back button. I really hope I'm just being dumb...
Background scenario:
Page P has a sidebar list allowing the user to select what content is displayed (e.g. 'stuff relating to X, Y or Z' where X, Y and Z are rows in, say, a table of projects). When a list entry is clicked, we branch to page P with the value of the list item placed in an application-level item (call it G_PROJECT). Reports on page P use G_PROJECT in their WHERE clauses.
So, click list entry X and G_PROJECT is set to X and page P shows reports for project X.
Page P also has a set of buttons which branch to various edit pages which allow attributes of page P's current project to be updated. These pages similarly use G_PROJECT in their WHERE clauses.
Problem scenario:
1. The user goes to page P and picks project X off the list. Project X's stuff is displayed (G_PROJECT = X).
2. The user then picks project Y off the list. Project Y's stuff is displayed (G_PROJECT = Y).
3. The user then clicks the browser's Back button. The page is served from browser cache, so project X's stuff is displayed, but G_PROJECT still = Y.
4. The user clicks an 'Edit' button; we submit, and branch to an edit page which displays (and will edit) data for project Y because G_PROJECT still = Y.
This is SERIOUSLY BAD NEWS - apart from being confusing, the user's edit permissions on projects X and Y may differ, and so the user may be able to perform 'illegal' updates.
I've read what I can on this forum and the rest of the web looking for ways to a) inhibit browsers' 'Back' functions and/or b) prevent pages being cached by the browser, but none of them have worked for me.
Short of waiting for browser manufacturers to recognise that the web is now full of applications as well as static pages, and enable robust programmatic control of cache behaviour, does anybody know how the problem can be avoided - or at least detected?
Thanks,
jd

Thanks Scott,
I may be being dumb here but I don't see how that would help...
P250_PROJECT and G_PROJECT are currently kept in sync by app logic. Whichever is used to drive, if the page is rendered from cache then the app logic is not executed, so the rendered page contents are not those keyed by P250_PROJECT, as illustrated in steps 1-4 of the problem above.
The user sees X, the session items say Y. The engine doesn't know what the user is seeing.
when page P is POSTed, its hidden item P250_PROJECT should always be used to derive the application item G_PROJECT. Then whether the page was pulled from cache or rendered anew via a click from the sidebar link, the project ID is determined by the contents of that page.
As I said above I tried this, with the 'Edit' branch set to:
Set these items: G_PROJECT
With these values: &P250_PROJECT.
but it makes no difference. The project ID is not determined by the rendered page contents - the engine gets the value of P250_PROJECT from session state.
I can code the 'Edit' pages such that they check permissions and if necessary redirect back to p250 (conditional before-header branch), but that's a clunky cure rather than the prevention I was hoping for.
Please tell me if my understanding is incorrect.

Browser.cache.check_doc_frequency=1 doesn't work

Hi guys, running FF27.01 on W7SP1.
I have a lot of tabs open and I set FF to reopen them at every launch, my problem is that FF hardly ever checks whether those webpages were updated when I reopen it....Opera, Chrome & IE do it, why not FF? Who could possibly want to read an outdated webpage?
So I did set "browser.cache.check_doc_frequency" to "1"(I tried all possibilities actually), now FF is kind enough to check whether the webpage was updated on some sites....very few sites actually.
This is a known issue from what I found running a google search and the solution was either to clear the cache when FF closes or to use Chrome...I don't like either of those two options.
This is my problem: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/754829
Is this a bug? Am I missing something here?
Hope you can help, I'm getting tired of being forced to manually refresh every tab :(

It makes no sense to allow the browser to remember the open tabs from the previous session, add a hidden "browser.cache.check_doc_frequency=1" configuration option and ignore it altogether.
Whatever IE, Chrome or Opera are able to remember the open tabs from the previous session and chech whether they've been updated.....it's hard to believe that the FF team finds the contrary acceptable?
I couldn't locate any extension that would get FF to stop living in the past, I guess I'll install Chrome or Opera as it seems that this bug will never be fixed. Too bad I really like FF but manual refreshes are getting old.
But it's definitely a bug as setting this option to "1" makes some webpages(head-fi.org for instance) auto-update but not others(forum.doom9.org), something's fishy in the HTTP headers checks.

Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.

I've been building a site in Muse successfully until today when I get this error message in the browser, publishing to business catalyst as a test bed:
Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.
Clearing the cache has no effect and I have checked the assets and there are no error symbols. This happened after trying a google translate code in the <head> and a HTML snippet on the master template, I've since removed it but that the last action I took that I can think may have had an effect.
Viewing the source of the page in Safari hash;t helped other than it shows ALOT of html (including some elements i can;t relate to in my site design) and states there are three errors:
[Warning] Invalid CSS property declaration at: ; (index.html, line 1)
the site is Kingsdown Holiday Homes - Self Catering Chalet Rental at Kingsdown Park, Kent | Home
I started this site in Muse CC and then recently upgraded to Muse CC 2014, and I had install issues so deleted the original program (this then forced the download of the new version which was not automatically downloading even though CC notified me that an update was required.
Any information gratefully received.
Thanks,
Andrew

Same problem here but it has nothing to do with a cellular connection.
Created the site http://www.blackdot.com in Muse 7.4.3 with no issues. Just updated the .muse file today to Muse CC 2014 and reloaded to our web server. Now I am getting the error "Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect." when viewing the site from the latest version of all browsers (Safari, Firefox, Chrome) on a Mac and all browsers on a PC (Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Explorer), also mobile Safari on an iPad.
My connection is wired broadband, not a mobile or wireless connection. I am not using the Muse "Upload to FTP host…" option and will not be using it. I am simply exporting as HTML and copying the files to my server. I have deleted all files from the web server and recopied the updated site with the same error result. This is the exact same procedure I used to load the initial site with the prior version of Muse.
It does not seem like there is an existing solution to this problem although many others are experiencing it. It looks like I will need to manually edit each page to remove the error message coding from the html files. Any tips on how to strip out the alert message from the html?
UPDATE
For anyone else experiencing this issue, I was able to edit the .html files for my site to remove the code responsible for this alert message. If you wish to edit your .html files you must make the same edit to every .html file in your site export including the top level "index.html" and all .html files inside the "tablet" and "phone" folders if you have them.
The coding to remove is at the bottom of each .html file:
(Muse.assets.outOfDate.length||Muse.assets.required.length)&&alert("Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.")
Make sure you do not remove any semicolons or braces {} when making this edit. Just remove the text shown above. You will obviously need to remake these edits if you export your site as HTML in the future.

Will I increase my Buffer Cache ?

Oracle 9i
Shared Pool 2112 Mb
Buffer Cache 1728 Mb
Large Pool 32Mb
Java Pool 32 Mb
Total 3907.358 Mb
SGA Max Size 17011.494 Mb
PGA
Aggregate PGA Target 2450 Mb
Current PGA Allocated 3286059 KB
Maximum PGA Allocated (since Startup) 3462747 KB
Cache Hit Percentage 98.71%
The Buffer Cache Size advise is telling me that if I increase the Buffer Cache to 1930Mb i will get a 8.83 decrease in phyiscal reads (And its get better the more I increase it)
The question is .. can I safely increase it (In light of my current memory allocations) ? Is it worth it .. ?

Two things stand out:
Your sga max size is 17Gb, but you are only using about 4Gb of it - so you seem to have 13Gb that you are not making best use of.
Your pga aggregate target is 2.4Gb, but you've already hit a peak of 3.4Gb - which means your target may be too small - so it's lucky you had all that spare memory which hadn't gone into the SGA. Despite the availability of memory, some of your queries may have been rationed at run-time to try to minimise the excess demand.
Is this OLTP or DSS - where do you really need the memory ? (Have a look in v$process to see the pga usage on a process by process level).
How many processes are allowed to connect to the database ? (You ought to allow about 2Mb - 4Mb per process to the pga_aggregate_target for OLTP) and at least 1Mb per process for the buffer cache.
Where do you see time lost ? time on disk I/O, or time on CPU ? What type of disk I/O, what's the nature of the CPU usage. These figures alone do not tell us what you should do with the spare memory you seem to have.
A simple response to your original question would be that you probably need to increase the pga_aggregate_target, and you might as well increase the buffer size since you seem to have the memory for both.
On the downside, changing the pga_aggregate_target could cause some execution plans to change; and changing the buffer size does change the limit size on a 'short' table, which can cause an increase in I/O as an unlucky side effect if you're a little heavy on "long" tablescans.

IWeb Browser Caches Huge Headache!

I have (finally) successfully designed my website and for the most part, it's working well. The issue I'm having at the moment is that when I update the website, I have to clear my browser caches each and every time in order to see the changes. I have tried using Internet Explorer (on my boyfriend's PC-he's stil playing for the other team), Safari, Firefox (both PC and Mac) and Crome (both Mac and PC). It's the same for all of them. It's not a big deal for me but it is a HUGE deal for people that are wanting to see the most recent version of the site. I have had a couple of friends check it out for me (Mac as well as PC users) and they are all having the same problem as well. Surely not every person who wants to see my site will have to clear their caches each time??? Is there a setting or something that I can add to my site via iWeb so that it forces it to load the pages each and every time, rather than from a cache?
Just in case...the site is www.nhwctr.org
Thanks!

Regarding your landing page URL, you should remove the apostrophe in the page name.
Emptying the browser cache is one of these things that people should do at some point in any browsing session - but don't appear to.
To force the browser to load from the server evry time, the following can be added to the html doc...
<meta http-equiv=”pragma” content=”no-cache” />
This can't, of course be done in iWeb and would have to be added every time you publish updates in the same way that you add the other meta data for SEO...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Tags.html
The end user can force the page to load from the server, rather than the cache, by adding a ? to the end of the URL.
Normally you would be collecting your regular visitors' email addresses using a contact form and sending them an update newsletter. This is website marketing at its most basic...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Email-Marketing/Website-Marketing.html
In the bulk emailed flyer, you can attach a ? to the URLs of the updated pages.
You should, of course, keep the search engines up to date as well by submitting a new sitemap.xml every time you publish changes to your site...
