Firefox isn't really that bloated until you install addons.

When I first tried Chrome I couldn't believe how fast it was compared to FF. But if you install a load of extensions, suddenly it's not so responsive and in particular the memory usage goes through the roof, especially if you browse with a lot of tabs open at once (as I believe the extensions are loaded for each separate process with Chrome).
