If the renderer was killed by the system, then that’s a memory consumption issue (already tracked by e.g. https://launchpad.net/bugs/1478853). If the renderer crashed, then that’s a different issue indeed. Can you reproduce the situation reliably on one given page, or does it happen at random? In any case, feel free to file a new bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+filebug with as much information as possible, and we’ll triage it accordingly. Note that there is work ongoing to display a friendly message to the user when either situation happens, so that at least the user is not left staring at a white screen without a clue of what just happened (see https://launchpad.net/bugs/1375272).
