Comment #1 on issue 32061 by Robert.Bradbury: Restoring session can make browser completely nonfunctional
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=32061

I'm fairly sure dbg1.trc is a stack trace I mentioned of the main process at the point at which everything hangs (the trace file has been edited somewhat to remove non-relevant parts of the gdb session. I believe I may have the saved critical elements of this session and could be able to test recreating it (I don't yet know how to create an alternate chromium session (profile) under the same user id but am not enthusiastic to interfere with the currently restored session, even without Javascript or Flash -- it isn't unusual for me to run single sessions for weeks so long as they are performing efficiently -- in part because restoring complex sessions
takes such a long time).

I'm assuming that channel 14 in dbg1.trc may be the channel between the process and
the X server but am not sure.

ps.hung.family shows the process status (ignore the root chrome instance, the
bradbury instance is the one with the restart problem).

An attempt somewhat earlier in the day to strace the activity of the "hung" session
yielded the following:
Process 24846 attached - interrupt to quit
write(14, "!", 1 <unfinished ...>
Process 24846 detached

On the other hand a strace on a normal "simple" chrome process (gmail and this issue (#32061) being the only open tabs), e.g. normal.trc, yields a complex mixture of inotify_add_watch, gettimeofday, poll and an occasional read or write calls -- but it
is definitely not "hung".
