Quicker way to open websites you need frequently

Site Launcher® is a simple Firefox add-on that provides a convenient, clutter-free way to quickly open websites you often need. One keyboard hotkey makes the "Launcher" panel instantly appear, then a single key press jumps you to your destination.
The hotkey for the Launcher is Ctrl+Space (or Ctrl+Alt for Mac users). As with most aspects of SiteLauncher, the hotkey is configurable. SiteLauncher is entirely free to download and use forever.

Speedup-Super Charge Firefox by Moving Your Cache to RAM

 


Know how to Move Cached data to RAM instead of HARD DRIVE to make ur Firefox Faster:






Since your computer can access data in RAM faster than on a hard drive, moving cached data to RAM can improve your page load times. In Firefox, all you need to do to move your caches to RAM is open upabout:config and make a few tweaks.

Once you get into about:config,

type browser.cache into the filter bar at the top.

Find browser.cache.disk.enable and set it to false by double clicking on it.

You’ll then want to set browser.cache.memory.enable to true (mine seemed to already be set as such)

And create a new preference by right clicking anywhere, hitting New, and choosing Integer.

Call the preference browser.cache.memory.capacity and hit OK.

In the next window, type in the number of kilobytes you want to assign to the cache (for example, typing 100000 would create a cache of 100,000 kilobytes or 100 megabytes).

A value of -1 will tell Firefox to dynamically determine the cache size depending on how much RAM you have.


This tip isn’t brand new, but it is something we didn’t know about, so if you’re looking to eke a bit more speed out of Firefox (and who isn’t?) this should give your page loading speeds a little boost. You can check up on your memory cache activity by typing about:cache in the address bar. Hit the link for more information on this tweak, and if you try it out, let me know how it works for you in the comments..

ISRO builds India‘s fastest supercomputer




ISRO has built a supercomputer, which is to be India's fastest in terms of theoretical peak performance of 220 Trillion Floating Point Operations per second.
The supercomputer 'SAGA-220', built by the Satish Dhawan Supercomputing Facility located at Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), Thiruvananthapuram at a cost of about Rs 14 crore was inaugurated by K Radhakrishnan, Chairman ISRO at VSSC today, ISRO said in a statement. 


The new Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) based supercomputer, 'SAGA-220' (Supercomputer for Aerospace with GPU Architecture-220 TeraFLOPS) is being used by space scientists for solving complex aerospace problems. 


'SAGA-220' is fully designed and built by Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre using commercially available hardware, open source software components and in house developments. 


The system uses 400 NVIDIA Tesla 2070 GPUs and 400 Intel Quad Core Xeon CPUs supplied by WIPROwith a high speed interconnect. 


With each GPU and CPU providing a performance of 500 GigaFLOPS and 50 GigaFLOPS respectively, the theoretical peak performance of the system amounts to 220 TeraFLOPS, the statement said. 


The present GPU system offers significant advantage over the conventional CPU based system in terms of cost, power and space requirements, it said. 
The system is environmentally green and consumes a power of only 150 KW. This system can also be easily scaled to many PetaFLOPS (1000 TeraFLOPS).
