The Firefox is executed within the Xorg - X server.
So you can start from there,
- Xorg module for video card
- Mesa-based DRI module
Down the rabbit hole,
- Kernel video module

Apologies if asking you to repeat yourself, but I don't see the previous
messages on this.

What have you tried? What do you see?

The internet is full of Firefox is slow, and here's what to do
postings. Over the years, I've run safe mode (see the man page), started
the Profile Manager (see the man page) and started with a clean profile,
enabled/disabled syncing, disabled all plugins, and disabled Flash, all
in attempts to fix a performance issue. All of which, in various
combinations, resulted in partial, temporary victories.

So, let us know what you've tried, so we can avoid repeating the internet.

Happily running F19 and FireFox 28.0,

Ted

That's because he posted them to the Fedora Test list. Once again folks,
this is *the wrong list for discussing Rawhide*. People who continue the
thread here are just compounding the problem, which is that many of
those developing Rawhide don't even read *this* list.

Well, he had previously posted about this problem on the *test* list on 3/29 
and has gotten several replies and suggestions.  Some, like myself, haven't had 
any problems.  Others have offered suggestions about not running the debug 
version of the kernel.  Then there are the usual flash is your problem 
suggestions or asking about memory capacity. 

I suggested here, and on the test list, that he try using a newly created user 
to eliminate something in his environment.  I've not seen any response to my 
suggestion.  So.the troubleshooting of this issue seems haphazard at best.

Of course the idea of having a martini while waiting to switch tabs does appeal 
to me.

Urbi et Orbi? :)

This list provides community assistance, encouragement, and advice for
Fedora users.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users

This is a very vague definition, what is the what.
If Fedora user has problems with digestion, should she be advised.
Maybe ... for the Fedora Current Supported Releases usage, would be
more accurate.

I'm still waiting for my Martinis shaken, Robert! :)

Must not be a general problem since.

[egreshko@f20kde ~]$ cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora release 21 (Rawhide)
[egreshko@f20kde ~]$ rpm -q firefox
firefox-28.0-3.fc21.x86_64
[egreshko@f20kde ~]$ uname -a
Linux f20kde 3.15.0-0.rc0.git7.1.fc21.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Apr 3 01:09:55 UTC 2014 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And all is running just fine for me.  I think others have said the same thing 
on the testing list where this issue should be addressed.

I suppose you've already tried creating a new/clean user and have the same 
problem?

as mentioned, have you tried a new profile?

SWAG #1. have tried removing current firefox installation
and installed rawhide or earlier version?

SWAG #2. open Browser Console ctrl+shift+j,
select [Clear] button, restart firefox, try opening tabs,
after they open, ctrl+shift+j to see if anything shows.
