you have adblock plus version 2.9 - there are currently a number of reports that this recent update causes poor performance, please try to replace it with https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/ and see if the issue is still there.

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?

Yes. Still slow.
Start your Computer in safe mode. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?

You have a bunch of add-ons - in Safe Mode they are disabled.
Have you re-enabled them , one by one, in order to find the (possible) culprit ?
And have you read those articles FredMcD gave you the links to ?
