A lot of times, what causes a browser to bog down is the antivirus app on the machine. They check so many different things these days every time a page is loaded that if the antivirus isn't efficient, it can crush a machine and it appears to be the browser. Of course browsers have their own issues, but antivirus complicates the issues as well.
