Comment #24 on issue 11700 by [email protected]: Ameliorate problems due to  
renderer being swapped out
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=11700

@22 and @23. Yes, the memory has been paged out to disk and the redraw is  
touching
every page causing a page fault that reads the page from disk, this can  
make the
computer very slow.

I believe this can happen in any OS.

What @22 is observing is the "backingstore lost" effect, Meaning that we  
only have a
few backingstores (5) and the different tabs compete for them. At some  
point some tab
is going to loose its backingstore and upon that tab being made visible it  
will regain
an empty backingstore and force a full redraw.
