To clarify the difference that Brett is making, I believe he means that although you may get a "want to kill this tab?" message (perhaps due to running out of memory or other conditions), this is _not_ a crash (where usually the entire browser window will close unexpectedly). Do please file a bug at http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/entry if you can get a reproducible crash.
Brett or anyone else, please feel free to correct me if my rephrasing or understanding is in error.
