I rememer Firefox primarily for being a snappy browser, they got rid of the kitchen sink Netscape/Mozilla suite bloat. Sadly Firefox is now far behind in regard to performance compared to webkit-based browsers, for which the XUL/Toolkit, the feature creep and the legacy support are probably responsable. Using Firefox nowadays just feels too slow, even though it's addon ecosystem is unrivaled.
