Adding to this, there is a huge delay while trying to open new tabs in the same firefox window. All add-ons disabled, firefox re-installed, but problem persists.

This bug still exist for me. Not to the extant that it used to be but still for a millisecond to seconds which is bearable. It used to be worst when flash plugin container used to load. To get rid of the freezing state, I have to click elsewhere but firefox.
