Comment #4 on issue 15815 by a...@chromium.org: chrome browse webpage error
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=15815

This is indeed an out of memory situation that is related to JavaScript.   
The issue
is that the JavaScript code continues to fetch innerHTML strings from the  
DOM.  In
the binding layer we create external strings for all of them.  The external  
strings
are really small in V8, but they hold on to a massive amount of external  
string data.

I have a patch pending at webkit to inform V8 of the amount of externally  
allocated
memory is being held on to by external strings:  
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?
id=27537.

I have just landed a V8 change that will make better use of this data.   
When both of
these changes have landed in Chromium this issue should be solved.
