Title:
  Browser Freezes System during Cacheing.

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When browsing and RAM usages reaches 463 MB, System completely FROZEN
  with excessive hard drive activity. System goes back to normal after 3
  to 15 minutes.

  As I write this post, 228MB out of 463MB is being used. This "Report a
  bug" page is being done in a single tab.

  When visiting Facebook and not playing games nor viewing videos,
  within 10 minutes (average), system will freeze while excessive hard
  drive activity is in progress. Temporary solution has been exiting the
  browser every 15 minutes, and only use one (1) tab.

  When visiting Wordpress.com (my blog), browser works fine until
  working with the post "box" and attempting to view my pages or posts,
  system will freeze from several seconds to several minutes.

  The system does not crash! 10% of the time, the browser will ask to
  kill pages. Other than that, the longest time I had to wait to be able
  to use the system was 45 minutes. Despite excessive hard drive
  activity, I had to hold the power button down until my laptop turns
  off.

  Alternatively, when I press Ctrl-Alt-F1, logging in can take up to
  five (5) minutes before I can enter 'sudo killall chromium-browser',
  Once I kill the browser, system is back to normal operation (at normal
  speeds).
