I have not noticed this. I'm using the Nightly version of Firefox though. For me, since Firefox 23/24, it has performed comparably to Chrome. And believe me I have LOTS of tabs (sometimes > 50) open. Firefox handles them much more nicely than Chrome, uses less memory and doesn't crash, EVER. Chrome is just too happy to show me the sad face randomly during page loads.
