8. Override cache and reload fresh page
If you view pages that change frequently, your browser may be loading a
stale version because it is using the local cache. To skip the cached files
and go right to the page’s server, try holding down the Shift key and click
the Refresh button. You can also use the keyboard combination Ctrl+F5.
Another combination is Ctrl+Shift+R. These tricks work in Firefox but
Chrome is sometimes recalcitrant and may require several repetitions.
9. View the browser cache
If you want a quick way to see what files Chrome or Firefox is storing in
its cache, just enter about:cache (no spaces) in the address bar. Chrome
shows the contents of the cache directly. In Firefox, there is one more
step. Click “List Cache Entries”.
And there you have it – nine ways to speed up your Internet browsing.
