There is "about:networking" which has a logging feature.  When I was having slowness issues and reported it to this list about a year ago, I was told to use this feature to create a log and send it in to someone at mozilla to parse.  They claimed their developers could not find the problem, then the person who originally asked for the logs handed me off to someone else to send future logs to and I never heard from anyone at mozilla again.

Be aware, this logging feature will generate LARGE files if you leave it running too long.  When I was doing testing for the above-mentioned issues, it created 10s of GB in log files just browsing a dozen or so sites.
