After the html page is received, a node for a.jpg is placed in the DOM, and a request is sent (time=x). Then necko receives the response header for a.jpg (time=y), immediately followed by a.jpg.

I assume OnStartRequest here.

Necko receives the response on a background thread and posts an event to the main thread to call OnStartRequest. There is thus time delay that depends on the context switching in the operating system and how many events were already in the main thread event queue.

Same thing, basically.

I am interested in times x and z alone. Apart from network & CPU processing delays, do any Firefox parameters/design contribute to the delay between x and z?

Apart from the above, no.
