Title:
  Chromium hang up my laptop when over 70% of the RAM is used !

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: chromium-browser

  Hi,

  Over a clean 10.10 install, ubuntu takes approx 500mb of RAM on my
  laptop (which have 2go). When, for some reasons, i use more than
  approximatively 70% of the RAM AND IF chromium-browser is launched, my
  pc begin to hang up really hard. Everything became unresponsive and
  the mouse act really slowly.

  I have made some kind of diagnostic to find it comes from chromium by 
launching the following program:
  - Virtualbox / qemu (over 800mb)
  - Some java programs (over 300mb)

  Basicaly, the RAM in charge is over 1.3 / 1.5go.

  Test 1: Launching Chromium-browser
  Result: Hang up the computer until my patience force me to hard reboot

  Test 2: Launching midori or firefox
  Result: The pc is a bit slower because the ram is full and the swap is used 
BUT everything is responsible.

  Test 3: Launching Vbox and java after chromium
  Result: Hang up the computer...

  Moreover, i've noticed chromium use over 400mb of memory with the
  current maverick build.

  I use Ubuntu 10.10 amd64, with an ASUS X53Sa, Intel Core2Duo and 2go
  RAM and 1go of SWAP.
