I've been caught by this in the past without Firebug.  Every browser
update introduces changes to timing.  Every different browser reacts
differently.  Code that worked well when JavaScript was slow is now
getting caught by modern JIT compilers and other speed improvements.
Change browsers, versions, or even computers and your code could break
if it's not written well.

I don't really think there's much that should or could be done to
emulate the browser in this respect.
