network.http.pipelining.maxrequests recommended value is invalid #8

The only valid values are 1 thru 8. My current default in Firefox for Android is 6. Any value higher than 8 defaults to 8.

I don't see the point in adjusting it to a higher value if a higher value than 8 is just recognized as an 8. Because the current default is 6 why even change it and, even so, put it at a value which isn't even a valid value?

I'm all for tweaks but it should reflect legitimate values, nonetheless.

This documentation needs revision. network.http.pipelining.maxrequests can now be set to 32 as well. In fact the default value is 32. We are also going to recommend 32. Thanks for the report.

How are you finding that out? The about:config screen bugs me. No documentation, will accept invalid values. Doesn't distinguish between which OS's each is compatible with... bugs me.

awesome. Thanks. I've been curious about digging into config settings. It's such a screwy implementation.
