Speed Up Web Browsing On Safari 6

Web browsers start to slow down after more and more browsing sessions. Many people know about clearing out their history, but there are a couple of other things you can do – and if you are a web developer who uses the Apple Safari web browser for debugging, here’s a step for you too.

I actually got this tip from the Apple help forums – thanks to a poster called Dominic 23.

Firstly, you need to Reset Safari:

1. Click Safari in the menu bar.
2. From the drop down select “Reset Safari”.
3. Uncheck the box next to ” Remove saved names and passwords”.
4. Click “Reset”.

Click Develop and select “Empty Caches” from the dropdown.

Select “Library” and then “Caches”.

Right click “com.apple.Safari” and select “Move to Trash”
