New issue 7046 by [email protected]: Re-use renderer processes  
intelligently
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=7046

Chrome has a limit to the number of renderer processes it will create, to
avoid overloading the user's machine.  If this limit is reached, Chrome
randomly assigns new tabs (i.e., SiteInstances) to existing processes, as
long as the Profile matches.

In this case, we should try to more intelligently assign new SiteInstances
to existing renderer processes.  For example, we should try to assign a new
SiteInstance to a renderer process showing pages from the same site, if one
already exists.  This will help improve isolation between sites.

The heuristics should be smart enough to avoid overloading a single
renderer process, though.  For example, putting all Google Apps into a
single process will degrade their responsiveness.
