@davidak.de: Thanks for the report!!

Could you please update Chrome to latest version #65.0.3325.162 and check if you still face the issue? If so, help us with a sample Crash I'd from chrome://crashes for further triaging.

Thanks!!

I spend the last 4 hours closing tabs. I closed 50 and lost 180 while Chromium was closing and crashed. So after restoring tabs, i have about 100.

With 100 tabs open the problem is not reproducible anymore.

This is the latest stable version i get from my linux distribution. I also don't have the option to enable crash report sending.

Here someone says that is is not possible to enable: https://stackoverflow.com/a/48489046

Do you have automatic tests with more than 100 tabs? Can you reproduce this crashes?

Thank you for providing more feedback. Adding the requester to the cc list.

I did a lot of testing today and finally was able to reproduce it in a fresh install of Chrome (not chromium)!

I wrote a BASH script to open 1000 tabs and installed THE GREAT SUSPENDER extension, so tabs actually use not much RAM.

Now when i open Chrome, 560 tabs are open, all suspended, so 2.3 GB RAM is used at max., but it still crashes.

Sadly i still don't get a Crashed report ID:

steps to reproduce:

1. open chrome
2. install extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/the-great-suspender/klbibkeccnjlkjkiokjodocebajanakg
3. extension settings: Automatically suspend tabs after: 20 Sec, also set chrome to restore last session on start
4. close chrome
5. ./open_chrome_tabs.sh
6. wait until all RAM is used and the system starts swapping (on my linux system with 8 GB RAM thats 560 tabs), then stop script with STRG + C
7. close chrome
8. open again and restore tabs
9. close and open until you see unstable behaviour and crashing tabs / browser

Chrome is still version 65.0.3325.124.

I also test with the latest version on macOS with 16 GB RAM. There i'm actually able to open 1000 tabs without crash! So this might be a Linux / NixOS related issue.

I will continue testing to give you a more detailed analysis and hopefully a crash report.

I'm able to reproduce the crash, but not to get a crash report.

Please see the last comment and attached logs for details!

davidak.de@ Could you please confirm from chrome://settings that option "Automatically send usage statistics and crash reports to Google" is enabled or not ? if it not enabled,  please enable it and try to reproduce the scenario and help us with the 16 digit crash id from chrome://crashes for further triage.

Attaching the screenshot for reference...

Like said earlier, the option is enabled, but i don't get a crash dump.

Tried a repro of this on Linux Ubuntu 14.04 using latest beta(66.0.3359.45) as I was facing issues with installation of stable build on my Linux system.

Test steps followed:
1. Same as in C#4.
2. Don't have 8GB RAM so had to test this on 15 Gb RAM Linux Ubuntu 14.04.

Below are the observations:
1. After running ./open_chrome_tabs.sh and stopping the script, Chrome hung when tried to Quit Chrome using Ctrl+Shift+Q. There were ~20 windows, each with 10 tabs open.
2. After sometime, was prompted for Force Quit of Chrome, clicked on that button and Chrome closed and upon relaunch, Restored tabs. 
3. Didn't observe any crashing tab in any of the 20 windows opened earlier.

 
davidak.de@: Could you please confirm if this behavior is seen on other channels as well. You can download the build and check from here: https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel. Meanwhile, I will try to test this on reported version and will update the behavior from there as well.

Thank you! 

I can test the dev channel build on my distribution (NixOS) and also try to reproduce it on current Ubuntu 16.04 and 17.10.

Tested the issue as using #65.0.3325.146 and #60.0.3072.0 on Linux Debian Rodete as per the steps mentioned in comment #9.

Machine configuration: 15 Gb RAM Linux Debian Rodete.

As mentioned is in comment #9, chrome hung is seen on trying to quit Chrome using Ctrl+Shift+Q.

Requesting dev team to take a look at this issue.

Thanks!!

I have again 345 tabs open and browser crash while opening.

I have closed enough tabs that it don't crash on start anymore (297 still open)

Like said before, in the time between start and crash i'm able to close 2-3 tabs.

Here you have some more logs with stack traces. That should help to find the cause.

How is the progress in fixing this?

I have still massive stability issues with your software!

Right now i have 283 tabs open and the "Pages Unresponsive" dialog appears every 3 seconds, but only half of my RAM is used. Pretty annoying when you watch a video in fullscreen or read a text.

My current version is Chromium 65.0.3325.162.

With this message you get again logs with stacktraces of the crash.

Any Update? Is this project dead?

I spend the last 2.5 hours opening chromium and see it crash after 5 seconds.

After one crash i have only 140 tabs, not my previous 293!

This console output appears when the browser starts, no crash.

Calling _exit(1). Core file will not be generated.

Also no crash, i can close cromium. That took some time because it hangs.

I rebootet my system again with 330 tabs open. The browser keeps crashing!

Any progress in fixing this? 

Now i have updated to Chromium 67.0.3396.87. I had 301 tabs when i opened it the first time and it crashed, again.

I can open it without problems with 296 tabs open.
