Firefox becomes unresponsive every 5 minutes or so for about 30 seconds
About every 5 minutes Firefox will become unresponsive for a short time and then go back to normal. Before and after it sort of skips.

Hi,
Is this happening on certain sites/content?? You can consider the Reset Firefox feature via Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information. If the problem persists, you can also temporarily Disable the Plugins in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons to check.
(To revert to the previous profile you were using, close the new profile (i.e. exit Firefox), start Firefox and choose the Default User profile. While the Profile Manager is open, you can also delete the newly reset profile (the one containing random numbers), or the former profile, as the case may be). If the reset is okay, it would be a good idea to delete the old profile as otherwise it would be left intact with the previous data until deleted.
To clarify, this is happening regardless of what tab I'm on (though it could be one of the tabs I've left open while trying different things) disabling Add-ons fixes things though.
You can now try to narrow it to the exact add-on that may be causing this, and try to update it, or keep it disabled. You can also post the result, there could be workarounds for a specific add-on in some cases.
