Firefox bullshit removal

Due to the incessant swarm of complete and utter nonsense that has been forcing its way into Firefox over time, I've decided to start collecting my personal list of “must-have” about:config tweaks required to turn Firefox into a functional brower.

A few show tricks to find slow queries in mongodb

Enable profiling

First, you have to enable profiling

> db.setProfilingLevel(1)
