I believe that the main CPU/memory hog is the XUL user interface layer in Firefox and Mozilla.
The K-Meleon browser http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/, is built on the same rendering engine as Firefox and Mozilla, but uses a native Windows user interface. It runs very lean and fast, quite usable on a Pentium 133 with Win98 Lite and 72MB of RAM. Firefox can barely be started on such a machine.
