The first step I'd do is updating Firefox to 13.0.1 (it works like a charm in my lenny). But you can also run more tests, like disabling your add-ons and plugins (mainly flash player) and check for any improvement once you have turn all them off. Also, ensure you have the latest flash player plugin version installed, now "11.2.202.236".
