Firefox does take longer for the first window to load, but you have to use a really slow computer for it to be noticeable.

You are probably getting the favicons or site icons. Some sites have their own individual icons. If you like them all the same like me go to this page and follow the instructions on number 1 and 2.

even if you clean your cache, there are still tons of junk left in your PC. try downloading a free utility called CCleaner, and it cleans most of the junk (unneeded files in your PC). after using CCleaner (cleaning your PC), run Firefox and see if there's any improvement.
