Other than browser settings, a few things. Firstly Freenet is inherrently quite high latency compared to the web anyway, since it has to go off and find the content possibly spread over multiple nodes via complex attack-resisting routing (which currently doesn't work as well as the devs would like). Secondly if I remember correctly there are parts of fproxy where threads block on I/O when ideally they should use NIO or suchlike. Thirdly there are a finite number of threads (maximumThreads parameter iirc), I don't think fproxy or any other client explicitly reserves some but you _may_ get better performance if you increase them a bit. It's a tradeoff against the extra memory/management overhead.
