Unfortunately it's not easy to track down what's happening here. Many people blame Gnome tracker. Do you have that running (as firefox-tracker-miner or something along that line)?
Thank you Wolfgang! No - I have NO Gnome tracker on my system at all. Like Beagle - I shot it in the head at the very beginning (forcibly removed it)
Another reason could be a very big sessionstore.js file in your profile. I made the experience that bigger as 4MB or so can be really ugly.
Holy crap! I don't know if this is the 4M you are talking about, but I have 295M under .mozilla/firefox: 17:57 alchemy:~/.mozilla> du -hcs firefox/ 295M firefox/ 295M total 17:57 alchemy:~/.mozilla> 18:01 alchemy:~/.mozilla/firefox> l total 20 drwx------ 4 david dcr 4096 Aug 13 2010 . drwx------ 4 david dcr 4096 Aug 13 2010 .. drwx------ 4 david dcr 4096 Mar 19 20:30 Crash Reports drwx------ 13 david dcr 4096 Apr 13 17:42 nbveu8do.default -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 94 Aug 13 2010 profiles.ini 18:02 alchemy:~/.mozilla/firefox/nbveu8do.default> for i in */; do du -hcs $i; done 16K ABE/ 5.7M adblockplus/ 7.4M bookmarkbackups/ 177M Cache/ 32K chrome/ 31M extensions/ 4.0K minidumps/ 16K OfflineCache/ 12K searchplugins/ 1.5M startupCache/ 24K weave/ 18:02 alchemy:~/.mozilla/firefox/nbveu8do.default> l *sqlite* -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 557056 Apr 13 00:58 addons.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 426600 Apr 13 00:58 addons.sqlite-journal -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 98304 Mar 19 20:30 chromeappsstore.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 27648 Apr 12 17:56 content-prefs.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 1048576 Apr 13 14:02 cookies.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 32768 Apr 13 14:02 cookies.sqlite-shm -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 46144 Apr 13 14:02 cookies.sqlite-wal -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 2222080 Apr 12 23:04 downloads.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 425984 Apr 8 00:58 extensions.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 230400 Apr 13 14:02 formhistory.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 2048 Apr 13 16:28 permissions.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 20971520 Apr 13 18:00 places.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 32768 Apr 13 18:00 places.sqlite-shm -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 259592 Apr 13 18:00 places.sqlite-wal -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 2048 Apr 10 18:45 search.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 60416 Apr 12 22:29 signons.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 28672 Sep 30 2011 stylish.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 47185920 Apr 13 17:42 urlclassifier3.sqlite -rw-r--r-- 1 david dcr 121856 Apr 13 00:28 webappsstore.sqlite Total sqlite file size is: 73982280
If it's not one of these I don't know a reason offhand :-( It's not that it's generally slower apparently but always system dependent.
