i've gone thu all of the tweeks to get firefox to use less cpu, but its still a hog since i upgraded to maverick
since i upgraded to maverick, firefox uses btwn 30 -60% of cpu causing my whole system to run sluggish. i've gone thru all the tweeks suggested with no improvement. safari, on the other hand, uses 10-15% cpu. what is the problem?

Before trying to continue diagnosing, please update to Firefox 25 Update Firefox to the latest release
i updated to ff25 (i am on auto update, however, it was not updated) & it seems to help some. (cpu runs a little lower, but still spikes in the 60% range) compared to safari which doesn't seem to hog as much.
