There is a default setting for Firefox that causes it to almost peg a Core2 Duo mobile processor. The setting can be changed at the location indicated below.
Edit (Main Menu) > Preferences (Menu) > Advanced (Tab) > General (SubTab)
Uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available"
After the setting was changed I went from having CPU usage from over 80% to less than 20%.
Also, memory usage of Firefox dropped to around 11% after the change with 10 tabs open.
