Code:
Chromium: Version 31.0.1650.63 Ubuntu 12.04 (31.0.1650.63-0ubuntu0.12.04.1~20131204.1)
I was on Twitter using Chromium with 2-3 opened tabs. I had Firefox version 26.0 with 8 opened tabs.
While I was uploading a picture to tweet it, my machine became frozen O_o
I was shocked because this is the VERY FIRST time it happens with me on this machine. It is Core i5 2nd generation wit 4GB RAM and 4GB SWAP Partition and I have never ever faced such issue before. Today, it happened 3 times and I managed to access System Monitor and take some screenshots:

Usually, such thing happens with me when I am on my P4 with 512MB RAM and while I use Facebook and Gmail on Chromium, the machine will give me hard time and Chromium will eventually crash.
But on such powerful machine that I was using? I am really shocked. For a second, I thought there is a hacker or something but then, I realized it is Chromium that is doing all that.
I have closed all the tabs and kept only one:

Once I closed Chromium Browser, I felt the machine became better.
Have you ever seen something like this before?
No matter how many tabs I open on Firefox, my machine works like a charm. Do you think this is a bug? note that I am using Xubuntu which should be light on resources, I am not using Ubuntu.
Thank you in advance
