If you install wireshark, and then begin capture just before you make
firefox go to a fresh site, ou should be able to see what is happening
on the network.

ps. for me its: ff tries ipv6, waits a minute for nonexistent response,
request ipv4, and instantly has the answer and the page.

wireshark makes it easy.
