Are you using mostly Google pages or services? That might explain why Firefox runs worse.

Anecdotally, of the three browsers I have on my dev machine Chrome is the biggest resource hog.

Resource hog != lag.

The reason Chrome doesn't lag is probably due to the fact that it uses so much RAM. I personally use Safari because of the OS integration but for some sites I do have to fire up Chrome just for performance.
