I suspect you either:
- Have an extension doing odd things... test by disabling all extensions in Incognito mode and visiting the page incognito.
- Have a bad graphics driver and are using graphics acceleration... test by looking in the chrome flags, disabling graphics acceleration and visiting the pages.
- Have an extension doing odd things... test by disabling all extensions in Incognito mode and visiting the page incognito.

Currently the most recent page of the 'Functional bikes..' thread in bikes and bits crashes the tab every time. It tends to happen in threads with a lot of image embeds and the tab crashes while the images are loading in, but not always. For example, i can view this thread without issue despite it having loads of pictures. Using the chrome task manager the memory use seems to vary around 26mb - 52mb, doesn't noticeably spike before a tab crash but the tab disappears from the list instantly so I can't see how much it's using when it crashes. As a comparison, scrolling up and down a thread on the SomethingAwful forums with embedded tweets, youtube vids, animated gifs and jpgs is using 75mb of memory.
Pretty sure it'll be something my end though like an extension conflict, or there'd be more people having the same problem. Strange that it's only this site though.
e: Also if I have multiple LFGSS tabs and one crashes then they all do. Other tabs are unaffected.
e2: Might as well consider this solved. It started happening on another site too, I killed each tab individually then restarted so it didn't try to restore my session, then restarted my computer. Seems to be fixed for now. As always, turning it on and off again solves all problems.
