I wouldn't set them too high or you'll hammer the server. Here's what I have:

network.http.max-connections - 48 (default 24)
network.http.max-connections-per-server - 24 (default 8)
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy - 12 (default 4)
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server - 6 (default 2)
network.http.pipelining - true
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests - 8 (default 4)
network.http.proxy.pipelining - true

And for a little more rendering speed, right-click anywhere and select New > Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set the value to 0. This changes the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves :)

Meh, I don't really notice much difference either... just thought I'd pitch in :P

Besides, I think it's better to have it tweaked, just in case... something... does... something else... :S :dodgy:
