Try to find which of the other files in the profile is the culprit.
You can start by clearing the disk cache (and/or turning it off),
then try files like places.sqlite cookies.sqlite panacea.dat etc.

When you find it is caused by places.sqlite there is a middle way where
you lose all your history but not your bookmarks, which may be more
acceptable: when you remove places.sqlite it will import the last backed
up bookmarks.

When a problem can be worked around by using a new profile, it should
always be possible to determine what part of the profile is the cause.
