Are you running all of these test with the build-from-source www-client/firefox ebuild? I used to do that but after not being able to track down the cause of some weird font-related graphics glitches, I settled for the binary www-client/firefox-bin package and haven't had problems since. I always run ~amd64 firefox-bin, currently at 47 and have no problems whatsoever. Definitely recommend you try that before going for chrome.
