Firefox is extremely slow outside of safe mode, even with a refresh, a reinstall, and disabling of hardware acceleration
Topic title covers most of it.
Basically:
A few days ago, Firefox started running extremely slowly. Tabs take considerably longer to load, the browser becomes laggy when it tries to load anything, and attempting to open multiple tabs at once leads to Firefox becoming completely unresponsive for some time.
Attempting to refresh had no effect. Safe mode made it run at full speed, but disabling all add-ons did nothing under normal circumstances. Disabling hardware acceleration caused Firefox to go from "unusable" to "frustratingly slow". Disabling WebGL had no appreciable effect. Installing new drivers for my processor and graphics card had no effect. Restarting my computer had no effect. Removing cookies had no effect. Clearing the cache had no effect. Disabling Sync had no effect. Reinstalling Firefox by renaming the old install to "Old Firefox" had no effect.
I'm using Firefox 46.0.1, 64 bit.
I can't provide info on my plugins right now, as I'm posting this in Chrome because of how slow Firefox has become.
A speccy snapshot of my computer is right here: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/vUlsCY1KK83gUZAKOebuwys
Please help.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
While still in Safe Mode,
Type about:support in the address bar and press Enter. Under the main banner, press the button; Copy Text To Clipboard.. Then in the reply box at the bottom of this page, do a right click in the box and select Paste. This will show us your system details. No Personal Information Is Collected.
Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open the Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control>(Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)
On the left side of the page, select Appearance. Then select Default.
Now restart Firefox.
As I outlined earlier, Firefox works swimmingly when in safe mode; however, disabling hardware acceleration and extensions while running Firefox normally have no effect, creating a paradox which I can't explain.

Try disabling Hardware Acceleration in Adobe Flash.
- Go to this Adobe Flash Player Help page.
- Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
- Click on Settings in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
- Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel.
The image "fpSettings1.PNG" does not exist.
- Remove the check mark from Enable hardware acceleration.
- Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
- Restart Firefox.
This Flash Player Help - Display Settings page has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Disabling hardware acceleration for Flash had a slight positive effect on Firefox's performance, but it's still quite slow and laggy compared to before. More input is requested.
