Hi Matthias, Thanks very much for taking a look at the project.
There was a glaring error in event dispatch that meant there was an idle function running continuously. I've just fixed and pushed the change. (commit 30280d2d27b62c33ff) This puts the orca / accerciser CPU usage back down to more reasonable levels. I'm seeing very high CPU usage when firefox starts up, and its taking a long long time. (Although it does eventually settle down.) This performance issue is even worse when looking at Devhelp. We have a plan to fix this for Devhelp, and I'll take a look at what is making firefox so slow.
