The title is the string I was looking for when I needed do to this. 

Since I use [Google reader on my Netbook](/2009/08/07/google-reader-on-a-netbook/), I like to use fullscreen view to maximize pixels. 

I just hate how slow it takes to switch between modes because of the silly ainmation of the toolbar/awesomebar which forces the browser to redraw the content after each pixel. 

Well, here's how to disable that. As expected, go to [about:config](/2006/01/31/mozilla-aboutwhat/) and search for the string: 
    
    
    
    
    
    
    browser.fullscreen.animateUp
    
    
    
    
    

And set it to **0**.
