I have exactly the same symptoms. It does not matter what page is loaded in firefox or whether the safe-mode is on or not, the cpu and disk trashing starts in a minute or two after firefox is launched. Firefox becomes unresponsive and closing it takes about ten seconds. Once closed, cpu and disk calm down.
This problem started to occur a few days ago...
My versions are:
firefox 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3
xulrunner-1.9 1.9~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3
