Hi,
I believe my speed is consistent with what my ISP delivers and my sysctl.conf file also has the dirty_bytes = 20000000 (and the two other settings mentioned with the same values [10 and 50]) as a default.
However, I use firefox, not google chrome, on this machine.
So, possibly this setting is harmless for not chrome browsers (or only a problem with chrome browsers on certain setups, since anticapitalista mentioned that he had no problems with speed with google-chrome, presumably with the same dirty_bytes setting?).

Whatever is set up by default in antiX works for me regardless of which browser I use. I see negligible speed performance difference on the typical pages that I use, and though some of the “lighter” browsers use less memory, only the truly minimal browsers that also have considerably less support for the latest technologies offer a LOT less memory use; the minimal browsers are mostly useful for browsing text and simple html with very minimal (if any) graphic content.
