adblock plus extension (see comment #7).
If others experience similar memory leaks, please file a new bug.
Thanks!

I have removed also AdBlock Plus some days ago (the last remaining add-

When comparing the memory occupation numbers in the Chromium task
manager with the output of the "top" command, all numbers in "top" are
larger than in the task manager, especially the main task takes several
times the task-manager-reported memory in "top".
The CPU consumption of the main task is
For now the Chromium task manager shows that the memory occupation of
the tabs is not growing but only the memory occupation of the main
browser process is growing. Also the main browser process uses by

Thanks for the quick answer. As a first step I will remove the add-ons,

I assume that there is no hardware defect (broken RAM or so) in the new
laptop as Chromium is the only app affected and Chromium
Thanks for the report Till. As this sort of issue hasn't been reported by
anyone else yet, it sounds like it might be something very specific to your
setup (it hopefully is).
Please try and narrow down what might be causing that terrible memory leak.
