[Firefox slowing down X2Go session]

I think it would be interesting to see what happens if you log in via 
SSH and run "top -i" there. Then, when your session starts to act up, 
check in your SSH session's top output if Firefox is eating away CPU/RAM 
and thus bringing the entire server, and not just your particular 
X2Go-session, to a halt. In that case, it would seem to be unlikely that 
it is an X2Go issue (though I wouldn't want to rule it out completely).
Also, you could try to run an un-accellerated session, with SSH and 
plain X forwarding through SSH. Note that this will be slower than X2Go 
from the very beginning, even without Firefox acting up.
If you can reproduce the issue with un-accellerated X, it's clearly a 
Firefox bug, IMHO.
