Acrylic

Acrylic is a proxy that powers up the Internet connection performance by storing the answer of DNS servers.

When you access any website using the web browser, it dedicates a moment to name resolution (usually from a few milliseconds to 1 second) while the rest is dedicated to the transfer of the page contents to your browser.

Acrylic reduces the time dedicated to name resolution for frequently visited addresses and that menas you'll access them faster.

If you think about it, it can seem you won't save so much time, but after several days of browsing you'll have saved a valuable time.

In addition, as it saves that information, in case of downtimes of your DNS servers, you won't notice them.

Furthermore, Acrylic can help you to effectively block unwanted ads prior to their download through the use of HOSTS files. That will optimize your navigation experience.

The only problem is the complicated configuration panel, but once you've configurated it, you'll welcome Acrylic.
