So what else can I test?
It sounds like you may have a DNS resolution problem. Might want to make
sure the DNS server you are using is the best you can. I actually have a
caching DNS server on my network, but even my ISPs is not that slow.

Actually, I've done a little more testing and I copied ~/.mozilla to
~/.mozilla.org and all of a sudden firefox was running nicely again.

A little more looking around (copying files from the old .mozilla to the
new .mozilla I discover that something in my prefs.js file is causing
the problem.

I've been using (through various upgrades) this prefs.js we before
firefox became the default in Fedora/Redhat so it appears there's
something in there that it doesn't like.

I'm now trying to figure out what it is.
Do you have ipv6 enabled ?  ifconfig...

Do you have cache settings {moz} set really large ?

If the problem is at all network based, then running wireshark, capture, and then trying to load the page gives the answer to:
- how long till the dns is requested /responds ?
- is it waiting for ipv6 results ?
- which sites is it actually getting connected to:
- is that site fast.
