Comment #2 on issue 16694 by iarkeus: Chrome freezes requiring hard reboot http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=16694
I have been having this same problem, but I have some information that could be useful. Sometimes the browser runs flawlessly. However, after awhile (randomly) it will start with the freezing. And it works like this: After a freeze I have about 5-10 seconds where I can browse between pages fine, with absolutely no problems. However, the next network action I do will cause it to freeze up for about 3-5 seconds. For example, I can be browsing google search for awhile, and then after my freedom 5-10 seconds are up, the next link I click will cause it to freeze before loading the page. However, it applies to any network action. For example, if I'm at a freezing point and I start to type in google search, it will use the network to try to find something for autocomplete, and freeze for a few seconds before sending the request and the autocomplete showing up. While streaming video it will freeze ~10 seconds because it's constantly using the network. Closing out of the browser ending all google processes doesn't work to fix it. I also recently tried running a nightly build (4 point something) of chromium and it's the same problem. Tried using the --in-process-plugins and it doesn't fix it, nor does uninstalling and reinstalling flash (as some people said those fix stuff). However, something also to add, it seems it may be related to the internet being used also. For example, it was happening on campus internet last june, but when I was at home over the summer I don't think it happened once, but now that I am back at school, it is happening again. Hope this information helps. (I hate swapping to another browser when it starts happening and I'm in not in a position to restart). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
