 Firefox insists on doing huge amounts of I/O when closing, as well as act slow when using the awesomebar, try the following (close down Firefox completely first):
 <code>
-    for f in ~/.mozilla/firefox/*/*.sqlite; do sqlite3 $f 'VACUUM;'; done
+#!/bin/bash
+killall firefox
+killall thunderbird
+du -hs ~/.mozilla/firefox
+du -hs ~/.thunderbird
+for f in  ~/.mozilla/firefox/*/*.sqlite; do sqlite3 ${f} "VACUUM;"; done
+for f in  ~/.thunderbird/*/*.sqlite; do sqlite3 ${f} "VACUUM;"; done
+du -hs ~/.mozilla/firefox
+du -hs ~/.thunderbird
 </code>
