Package: chromium-browser
Version: 6.0.472.63~r59945-5+squeeze2

Happens to me about half the time on Wikia sites (e.g. 
http://starwars.wikia.com/).  Browser starts allocating large amounts of 
memory; system begins swapping, then grinds to a halt, completely frozen.  
Prior to the freeze, there's a few seconds of reduced responsiveness; the 
freeze can be avoided if I manage to close the browser tab during this time.

I'm using wheezy on an amd64 machine with one gigabyte of RAM and two gigabytes 
of encrypted swap (dm-crypt, twofish-cbc-essiv:sha256).  Kernel 2.6.32-30 
(self-built, configuration available on request) with proprietary nvidia 
graphics module.

It's probably the kind of problem that can be solved by throwing memory at it.  
RAM is cheap, and my one gig system is looking a bit silly in 2011...
