YouTube is now written in Polymer, a library made by Google that uses the Web Components specifications, which currently only Chrome supports natively[1], so they have to rely on polyfills on the rest of the browsers, so it's understandable that YouTube can perform bad on browsers other than Chrome.

Firefox Nightly supports it, too, but Google still uses the polyfill there, and not even their normal polyfill, but a significantly slower one.
