While, after giving it another thought, I think I can re-produce the same
bug on my Core i5 2nd generation machine with 4GB RAM. Because, I got the:
"Kill or Wait" pop-up window 3 times. I think If my SWAP partition was
full, the browser would have crashed. I will report back if I managed to
produce this.

I have no idea what is wrong with Chromium? too bad that even Google can't
do anything about it because I don't think it is an Ubuntu Problem. As
always, Firefox works perfectly but I could be wrong though :)
