Create a new user. Log in as that user and run top or whatever monitor, and run iceweasel. Try to find a site with static content that takes a while to load and use that as a benchmark. If it runs fine for the new user, then you know that the problem is in your user configs. If it is slow for the new uers, then it is either a systemic problem or the version of iceweasel.
