I have the same problem on my Debian workstation running Jessie at
work. While it's a fairly beefy desktop with a Core i7 and 16GB, it
also has an ATI video card. I experience the same sluggish behavior
watching YouTube videos through Firefox. Watching the same videos at
the same resolution through Chrome does not produce the same
sluggishness. I have not yet tried Chromium. While watching videos
in both browsers I've viewed CPU usage in top. Firefox was chewing
away over 50% of the CPU whereas Chrome consumed 11%.

Additionally, I have a laptop and desktop at home running Wheezy and
Jessie, respectively. Neither one uses ATI for graphics and I have no
problems with sluggishness on watching YouTube videos with Firefox.
You could try updating the driver to see if that improves performance.
Otherwise, perhaps a different browser is needed.

Hope that helps.
