Hi,
     I've not noticed any more delay recently.

You can check if IO is the problem by keeping open a terminal with the
following command running:

# pidstat -d 10

Every 10 seconds, prints a stat of the most IO intensive processes.
Take a look at the output when FF hangs, and post the results.

pidstat is part of sysstat package.

Thanks!
