Just a guess: maybe one the addons you had installed has became unsupported by the new version. Try disable them or update them.

Please specify which Firefox version you are using and which add-ons you are using.

If you have already determined that it is an add-on, then you need to enable them one by one to find the culprit.

I wasn't able to reproduce the problem on my machine with the same FF version and add-ons. However, I would recommend using different add-ons. FlashGot is a well established add-on, developed by an experienced developer, but the other two have issues.

I am not sure if you are referring to this YouTube Downloader (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-downloader/), but that add-on is throwing errors in the console.

The Ant Video Downloader seems to work properly and has a huge user base. However, it has been developed since 2008 and it is still listed as Experimental. Due to the long history of development, I can only assume it hasn't been fully approved by Mozilla for some reason. Since it has been partially reviewed, you can assume it is safe to use, but it could be the cause of your performance problems.
