This delay isn't exclusive to Firefox, it's in any browser where a user has enabled adblockers including in Chrome. Disable the adblocker and this delay magically go away. This was done on purpose.

    Okay? But when my Firefox uses Chrome's useragent string, the delay also disappears.

      I would guess that Google uses a randomised rollout system to make changes affect a tiny % of users while they test it (common in big software companies). Changing your useragent might make you appear as a different client that's not affected (yet). Source: I work in software and can guess.
