Try using uBlock Origin instead of AdBlock Plus.

I stopped using ABP a little over two years ago when ABP was having problems with slowing Firefox down for many users; switched to uBO and haven't looked back.

Moving to Firefox Support as no bug in the browser is involved here.

Source of the problem:

For reference, this is currently causing performance issues in Adblock Plus with e10s. Our content process code needs to query the parent for content policy decisions because that's where the state is. Currently it has to happen synchronously because nsIContentPolicy requires a synchronous decision - so rather than delaying a single network request slightly we block the entire content process every time

Like the-edmeister said, install uBlock Origin and forget about AdBlock Plus. It has serious performance problems.
