chromium, firefox, and opera have always been roughly the same speed until a big 'emerge world' a while back. After that, firefox and opera slowed way down and became about 10 times slower than chromium. Does anyone know where I should begin to figure this out?

On my system firefox is also suddenly very slow, especially when I launch it I have to wait maybe 5 seconds.. (I have the vimperator plugin)

See how Firefox Aurora performs.

It's the bleeding edge version of Firefox. Comes with a lot of improvements that haven't made it into the stable version yet.
