The problem is firefox sucks big time when you're behind a proxy

I think this is because network.http.max-connections-per-server, which
defaults to 8, applies to the *proxy server* when using a proxy. Crank that
number way up (as much as whoever is running your proxy will allow) and
watch that problem go away).
