Is the browser slow generally or specifically when you watch videos?
If the latter it may, unintuitively, be a problem with your _audio_
driver [1] (like some incompatibility with the newer version of firefox
or some misconfiguration somewhere).
Worth looking at your graphics but also your audio setup, and how
firefox is configured to use them? What happens if you try to watch a
video (any old video) some other way?

[1] when mplayer has problems playing a video because not enough
resources available, it often suggests the problem could actually be the
audio driver. I'm basing this advice on the premise that the guys who
wrote mplayer know more about this stuff than me. I've followed that
advice to great effect in the past.
