But most of the people here can't read what's written there: for all 
we know they could be singing the praises of spaghetti.  :)

Maybe, though, your Firefox gets slow because of the Chinese (?) 
characters?  Have you tried visiting only English sites for a while?

And if it's caused by bad or heavy use of Javascript, also try 
avoiding the sites you usually visit, hop around on gentoo.org and 
similar sites, open lots of tabs and see what happens there.
