I haven't used other browsers besides Firefox in years, so I'm not qualified to provide a comparison. What I can say is that on the "profanity uttered"/"hour of usage" metric, Firefox has been getting much worse. Hell, I used to praise it.

Have you tried creating a new profile? In my experience, firefox needs a fresh profile every now and then or it becomes horribly slow.

Have you used Firefox 4, and if so, do you have things in particular that are slow?

Not slow, just breaky. Now, 3.6.13, which I use the majority of the time, is both.
