Chrome Browser hangs too offenly

Reported by jaynis...@gmail.com, Apr 13 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.133 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. 
2. 
3. 

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
I have notice in Task manager that, I have open 4 tab in single chrome browser but in task manager it has shows 10 instance of Chrome .exe as shown in attached file and all 10 instance use the memory. So that If user open more tabs or run multiple application in chrome, memory might get increase and that cause to hang chrome browser and system.I have also notice that if chrome browser is in idle stat then also memory increases continuously. 

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 57.0.2987.133  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: 

If user working on chrome browser with 4 tab is open and in that case if chrome get crashed accidentally. In that case chrome might still be running in background and that might be reason showing more exe in task manager

Is this issue still observed on chrome latest stable #61.0.3163.100? please recheck this issue by creating a new profile under chrome://settings with no apps or extensions in your browser.

You can also prevent Google Chrome from running extensions or plugins in the background by toggling a setting. Select “Menu”  > “Settings“, “Advanced“, then turn off the “Continue running background apps.

Thanks!

Reporter, the additional processes are for extensions, GPU, and the main browser process.
You can see the descriptions if you invoke the built-in Chrome Task Manager by pressing Shift-Esc key in the browser.

I'm actually going to archive this because it's old and doesn't contain enough information. If this happens again, please heed the advice in comment#2 and attach a trace:
