   If the system runs low on RAM, Linux wakes up its dreaded “OOM Killer”   
   kernel thread to free up RAM by killing the most memory-hogging processes.   
   You will see evidence of this happening in the logs. If Chromium loses a   
   process or two, that might indeed bring operation to a screeching halt   
   (though I would expect to see it display error messages as well).
