With all the changes I made so far, Seamonkey is unrecognisable fast now.
Have you done any testing to optimize these settings?
I installed the apache2 package on a debian system at home & put a
link to a 23MB jpg on the index.html page

Create a brand new profile for seamonkey, click on Tools / Web
Development / Toggle Tools &  select the network tab so I can see how
long it takes for SM to load the file

tl;dr  loading a big file from my local network isn't a good test.
I'm open to suggestions on how to make it a better test (ie.
demonstrate how changing settings changes the experience)

Web pages usually consist out of many small objects, all those objects must be stored in the cache(s). In real life the caches(s) may contain thousands of objects, so you have to emulate such a situation.

Pipelining for instance is there to lessen the influence of latency, so your test set-up must include latency.

Setting up a proper test environment is not at all easy, it seems even Mozilla hasn't been able to do that. Trying to understand what is going on, making educated guesses etc. is a better method at the moment. With that approach I came to these improvements, that can be noticed by any one who implements them. I think the results will be the same on all platforms.
