The three stack traces point to Out of memory

[mac triage] There are 33,687 crash reports for users of this Extension - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/onelogin-for-google-chrom/ioalpmibngobedobkmbhgmadaphocjdn

Does uninstalling it from chrome://extensions stop the regular crashes?

8/10 crashes sharing a client ID have that extension loaded. One of the two that doesn't shows a subdomain of onelogin.com . So I suspect it's some buggy javascript either in the extension or a site that's trying to rely on it.

(I don't see anything at the chrome://profiler output link, but `Take Heap Snapshot` under `Profile` in DevTools may provide further insight).

tapted@,  the customer removed the onelogin extension and encountered 'aw snap' crash after doing so.

Crash ID post 'onelogin' extension removal:
9f42400200000000

They also attempted to remove 'OfficeDocEditing' extension and received a crash after that as well.

This is still the case for http://go/crash/9f42400200000000

The other is bullhornstaffing.com, which also shows up in the previous list of crashes.

So signs still point to the particular sites the client is visiting having buggy javascript that is consuming all the available memory.

tapted, 

The customer provided a heap snapshot.  I uploaded the file to the share below (PII protected):

Unfortunately, that's a heap snapshot of linkedin.com - I don't think that's the cause. linkedin.com may still crash if it's been bundled into the same process as the buggy site due to memory constraints.

It's probably bullhornstaffing.com or the subomain of onelogin.com that has the buggy javascript.

The crashes all have an uptime of ~7 hours, so the site is probably leaking memory slowly over time, then crashing multiple tabs when the memory runs out.

Sorry, I understand this is frustrating, but it's unlikely there's anything we can do on the Chrome side to fix this. So I'm closing this bug.

Please ask the client to reach out to the website owners of bullhornstaffing.com or the subdomain of onelogin.com. to help the website owner diagnose the problem. I suggest the webmaster open a single URL for one of the pages that crash (no other tabs), leave Chrome running for a couple of hours, then take a heap snapshot to isolate their buggy code.
