I wonder whether this could have anything to do with DNS lookups working different in Chrome. Assuming Chrome on mobile directly goes to google DNS too.
Or maybe FF also getting IPv6 records for your affected targets and there being some slow or bad connection there.
But personally I don't have much experience debugging such things on Android.
Seconding the idea that it sounds likely to be a DNS thing. Android Firefox is apparently capable of DNS over HTTP, but it's not immediately clear to me how to turn it off to see if that's the problem, unless you have access to about:config.
