Its the system itself. When you do something in FF and it is
triggering this, the system does not have the resources available to
respond as it should. So it just drags the system as the system starts
trying to make the resources available. Its kind of a tipping point
thing, and since FF is a resource pig, it is more likely to be the
culprit to cause this (but not the only thing). There's a lot of
factors involved, including memory, cpu and video resources.
