New issue 24536 by jbverschoor: Resource leakage makes OS do strange stuff
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=24536

Chrome Version       : 4.0.220.8
OS version               : 10.6.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
I keep chrome open a long time (several days, and through stand-by
actions)
Then at some point chrome starts to act funny:
* entering an url in the bar and pressing enter does nothing
* the bookmarkbar gets 'loose'
* select-controls are buggy

If I try to start safari, or a open a new terminal-window, I get an error
(terminal says something like can't create pty or tty)

I'm pretty sure by now that the problem is chrome. If I quit all apps, I  
still
have problems opening a new shell.
Everything returns to normal if I quit and restart chrome.

Also I've seen chrome corrupt all my history at one point and eating all cpu
when emptying the cache)
I'm not sure how to dump a stacktrace when this happens.

Is there some kind of memoryleak tool built into chrome? So I can send
something like a list of allocated objects?
