Do you have some weird anti-scammer protection enabled in firefox?  You
might want to make sure the "Block reported attack sites" and "Block
reported web forgeries" are off (or temporarily turned off).  Both of
them Firefox to go to some external site to look up each new web server
and who knows what sort of delay that induces when those servers are
busy.

The other thing that may help is runnng your own nameserver.  Almost all
the external ones are run much worse and have sloppier code than the
current named/bind in the yum repositories.
