Yes, I think you are right.  Perhaps even the Adblock (Plus?) plugin.  However, 
I thought plugins ran in their own separate processes (and would display 
separately in the Chrome Task Manager). 

The Task Manager said this was the Facebook tab.

If I reload the Facebook tab/process then it (often) fixed things as well.  I 
guess I will have to experiment so more to find out what's happening.
