Firefox loads occasionally very slowly - sometimes about 30+ seconds.
I like Firefox and am using it for years, but I cannot accept lengthy loading time. I have a fast and stable internet so this is not the problem. Please let me know what the problem is and how to fix it.

Yeah, probably cache is too big (not Startup cache). Go to menu -> Settings -> Privacy & security -> Cookies & site data -> press the Clear data button.

Loading time... do you mean opening the browser or when you're trying to go to a website? How about showing the issue. Try ShareX to record and then post it on YouTube.
Did you try with Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode#search
You can also try Refresh Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings

Loading time? You mean startup time or loading of a specific website?
I mean startup time. On occasions it's very slow, as if nothing is happening.
Roger that. Did you try with Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode#search
Does clearing the startup cache help? see screenshot
