Hello,

I just reinstalled everything and Firefox takes about 3-5 mins to load the first time. After that it is very fast. Does anyone have an idea as of why this is happening? I tried deleting my ~/.mozilla directory but that doesn't help. This is not the firefox binary ebuild/install but the regular ebuild.

See if you have the line
127.0.0.1 localhost

in your /etc/hosts file.  It might be a DNS lookup timeout issue.
yes, I have that, but I had that before in my previous installation.  FF
seems slower
(at launch) at school where they have a proxy server. If my memory is
correct,
it seems to do that when I go from my home network to my school's network
and vice versa.
