Although I didn't think I'd have to, I actually ended up tweaking Mozilla's Firefox browser
quite a bit for speed. This page is intended to document that, as well as offer tips for
those who use other browsers.

Mozilla Firefox Tuning

There's not a whole lot to go into here, but I thought I'd offer this up as documentation

network.http.proxy.pipelining user_set boolean true

This page will be an attempt to document my current findings in tuning ATS.
