I saw references to Adobe Flashplayer being responsible for this, and
lo/behold, upon switching Flashplayer to "Never Activate", the Gtk/Gdk

I then disabled Flashplayer in all of my other profiles , and my Atlassian
Confluence tabs suddenly became usable again. (instead of 30 seconds of
grinding waiting to edit a page or authenticate, it took no more than 4-5
seconds).
While i'm massively disappointed in the performance still (yeah, partly the
freakin' web and it's abundance of dazzle/privacy-theft sites), it turns out
that Flashplayer being active for a single tab was killing my system.
I will say that the sites which have flash installed and/or running were
closed when I made my initial post (but the original process was still
open), and I was having trouble waiting for one of my folders in gmail
to open -- it took 53 seconds to go from "inbox" in gmail to a
subfolder/label. I do notice that firefox takes up well over 750MB of
memory when I check the process and I know the bulk of that is due to
flash, but I'll give disabling flash a try. I do run Flashblock
extension, but some pages still try loading video under the blocked
flash container anyway.... >:-\
