This is a common problem to all browsers so far as I know. This because of the
way that the browser uses the cache the more it has to wade thru the slower it
is. Setting the auto dump to lower MB might help.

Title:
Firefox browsing very slow when cache full
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I was browsing Amazon website using Firefox. It took 1 minute + to do
a search in the site. I cleared the cache and it was fine. I have not
changed the original cache setting, which is automatic. I noticed that
the 'currently using' was 350MB & that 'limit cache to' was grayed out
as 350MB. I cleared the cache and it was fine.
This was using Ubuntu 12.04.1 using Firefox
18.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.3.
