How to profile Firefox with symbols resolved

Hello,

My Firefox is using around 50% CPU all the time even if I'm not using it. I tried gecko profiler to check which pages/plugins cause it, but without luck. I see only addresses in the profiler (see image). How can I attach/resolve the symbols? I am using Ubuntu Linux and Firefox 40.0.3 (build directly from Mozilla for Ubuntu: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ubuntuzilla/).

Thank you!
