That website has ad boxes down the side. Multiple video ads can choke Firefox on a lower-performance machine. They do on my older laptop (single core, 1.5 GB of RAM). Control-alt-backspace, though firefox "helpfully" restores all the sites I had queued up when I killed X. I should learn more about adblock - perhaps so should you. It is helpful to kill -9 and restart Firefox from time to time. That frees up RAM, and helps me pretend I'm still in control.
