After contemplation, my reply is:
Sorry to read that your system is similarly afflicted. After a reboot
Chromuim settled down here. Chromium has been really good for so long.
But that could just be famous last words.
I only use it and Iceweasel, but now with the Iceweasel/Firefox
transition, which also has become a liability. Epiphany is my new
browser of choice in place of firefox-esr because of these bugs:
grave bugs of firefox-esr (→ 45.2.0esr-1) <Outstanding>
b1 - #828159 - firefox-esr: session tabs lost after upgrade from
iceweasel to firefox-esr serious bugs of firefox-esr (→ 45.2.0esr-1)
<Outstanding>
b2 - #827395 - firefox-esr: Firefox-esr privacy invading
defaults load beacons on 1st run serious bugs of firefox-esr (→
45.2.0esr-1) <Forwarded>
b3 - #822715 - firefox-esr: FTBFS with GCC 6:
'malloc' was not declared in this scope
So will leave it without installing again for a while.
Not a huge inconvenience. Just thought an answer might be out there.
Stay well,
Charlie
