Description:

Chromium seems to acquire more and more memory the longer it runs until there's nothing left. To be exact the browser process acquires up to 3Gib of memory so it's not a problem with any running tab.

Additional info:
* I use sun-jre, Google Mail Checker Plus and FlashBlock


Steps to reproduce:
Start Chrome, keep it running some time
This task depends upon

Hello Christian,
I'm using Chromium in arch64 and can't reproduce your problem.
Try selectively disabling your plugins to see if one of them is causing the issue.

I alsoo haven't noticed this problem on 686 or 64

before filling stupid bugs like this be sure that you disable any extensions. also if you still find that has memory leaks, fill them upstream as we can't do anything on it.

It's no fun filling upstream bugs. After all it seems it's related to the gmail checker plugin.
So sorry I bothered you to read this ... especially Ionut *cough*
