Right now, we're investigating if this has anything to do with recent Windows updates as some people have reported that a series of updates at the end of the year "caused" this problem. In the meantime, can you try running Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode where your extensions are disabled. It's possible that one of those updated and is causing the slowness.
