The only thing that I've seen where Firefox burns CPU for a couple of
minutes every so often is very obscure:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=499568
I would not have expected this to depend upon Firebug being enabled.

Another possibility is
http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=1948
because background ajax can fail, resulting a bunch of error messages.
Hard to get 1 minute of CPU out of that however.

I suggest you install the tracing version, open the tracing console,
and set ERRORS option. When you see the effect, look for something in
the log.
